I'm a very dedicated student. Always looking for ways in which I can improve myself.

I'm a Master's student currently enrolled in the Master's Degree in Artificial Intelligence, Pattern Recognition and Digital Imaging of the UPV. I have completed a Bachelor's in Computer Engineering with the minor of "Computación" (algorithmics, machine learning and theoretical computer science).

I also worked with a research group as a blockchain researcher and engineer for two years. All in all, I'm a very dedicated and analytical person, always looking for ways in which I can improve myself. I love what I do, and I look forward to make the most of what is a lifelong journey.

Education

  • 2020-2021

    Master's Degree in Artificial Intelligence, Pattern Recognition and Digital Imaging

    Polytechnic University of Valencia

    Currently enrolled in this Master's degree. Here I chose the machine learning, classical AI and computational linguistics blocks.

    I'm very excited about this course because I will be able to increase my knowledge about what I really love even further.

  • 2016-2020

    Bachelor's Degree in Informatics Engineering

    Polytechnic University of Valencia

    I started this bachelor on September 2016 and graduated on July 2020. This bachelor is worth 240 ECTS, and I completed 148.5 (out of 240) ECTS in the ARA group.

    The ARA ("Alto Rendimiento Académico" or High Academic Performance") group is a reduced group where everything is taught in English, and its objective is to reinforce the potential of the most outstanding students.

    It's worth noting that for my last two years of college, I choose the subjects related to AI, ML and theoretical computer science.

    My TFG ("Trabajo Final de Grado") or final degree project was developing a system that used tweets in Spanish and forecasted the cuantivative evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain. For this I tested and used different ML models, i.e. MLP, RNN and SVM. In this project I obtained a calification of 10/10 and the special mention.

    My final overall score was 9.1/10.

Work Experience

  • 11/2019-7/2020

    Dpto. de Informática de Sistemas y Computadores (DISCA) - UPV

    Research engineer

    Collaboration scholarship, 2019-2020 school year ("Beca de colaboración del Ministerio de Educación y Formación Profesional"). Here I finally started developing a blockchain system in collaboration with a teaching department.

    The aim of the project was to develop a system to enable fishermen and fish market vendors/buyers to automatically tag fish lots with the appropiate information. This also meant that thanks to the system, if an incident happened within a fish lot, the traceability of the lot would be automatically built and evaluated.

    I developed most of the system, including (but not limited to) the PoA ("Proof of Authority") consensus algorithm, the P2P network creation, a custom communitacion protocol based on ZeroMQ sockets and the evaluation of file size and transaction throughput performance.
