About Me

I was born in Valencia (1996), a city located next to the Mediterranean Sea where I spent most of my childhood. I have also lived in Louvain-La-Neuve (Belgium), Tokyo (Japan), Changsha (China), and currently in Dundee (United Kingdom).

I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence). Currently working as a Lecturer in Computing at the University of Dundee. My main research topics are Natural Language Processing, Computational Argumentation, and argument-based Human-Computer Interaction.

I like to spend my free time playing badminton, watching movies, reading books and playing video games.
