I am originally from Colombia. I came to the US to do a PhD in Physics at Georgia Tech. My PhD research was a supercomputer molecular dynamic simulation of lubricants compressed down to a nanometers wide gap. After finishing my PhD in January 2012, I did a postdoc in the Physics Department at Emory University on System Biology where we used Math and Physics to study biological Systems, in particular how information is stored in a network, and how cell receptor activation can be modeled as a Markov chain. From there I transfer to the Math/CS Department of Emory for a second postdoc to program GPU to improve the software used in Breast Cancer diagnostic Tomosynthesis. My third postdoc at Emory was with our collaborator in the Winship Cancer Institute where I learned how to use the Tomosynthesis and breast CT machines. I started in Savannah State University as Assistant Professor of Physics in the Department of Engineering technology on August 2015. I have four children, ages from 1 to 10 years old. I love teaching and interacting with my students. I have experience programming in multiple languages and love to see how physics can help us understand our world.
