Hello there!

I am a Mechatronics Engineer currently pursuing an ERASMUS MSc. in Embedded Intelligence Nanosystems Engineering. I'm a recipient of the prestigious Erasmus Mundus Excellence Scholarship, studying across three European universities: Hellenic Mediterranean University (Greece), University of Siegen (Germany), and University of Orléans (France).

My work explores AI and Machine Learning, Robotics and Automation, Computer Vision, and UAV/Drone systems. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Mechatronics Engineering from Pontificia Universidad CatĂłlica del PerĂş (PUCP). Previously, I conducted research at Yamagata University in Japan, focusing on image recognition using convolutional neural networks.

I have worked as an R&D Automation Engineer at RESEMIN S.A., Research Assistant in Robotics at PUCP, and Engineering Team Member at qAira Drones. My research has been published in IEEE, Elsevier, and Springer, focusing on robotics automation, drone technology for precision agriculture, and machine learning applications.
