Full-time faculty member at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV), with research, teaching, and outreach activities focused on three main areas: Urban and Industrial Risk Engineering: fire propagation modeling in informal settlements, thermal degradation of construction materials, and predictive maintenance strategies for critical infrastructure. Technical Education with Immersive Technologies: use of virtual reality, digital twins, and simulation-based training to enhance technical skill development, including accessibility solutions for people with disabilities. Cultural Studies and Technical Discourse: interdisciplinary research on Chilean contemporary poetry as a symbolic space for representing scientific and engineering language. Academic work is structured following a T-shaped profile, with disciplinary depth in thermofluids, fire science, and material behavior under heat (vertical axis), combined with transversal competencies in pedagogy, technology, and cultural analysis (horizontal axis). Aligned with Ernest Boyer’s model of scholarship, academic contributions span five domains: Scholarship of Discovery: experimental research on combustion, composite materials under fire, and thermal/hydraulic machine performance. Scholarship of Integration: interdisciplinary connections between engineering, accessibility, education, and immersive technologies. Scholarship of Application: development of applied solutions for urban and i
