    About me

    I hold a Ph.D. in Business Administration from the University of Chile and currently serve as an Associate Professor at the Universidad de Santiago de Chile. I was also a Visiting Ph.D. student at the University of Lisbon in Portugal, and I am presently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

    My research focuses on employee well-being, job insecurity, job performance, work-technology dynamics, and neurodiversity in the workplace. The overarching aim of my work is to enhance organizational and workplace environments, thereby fostering the delivery of high-quality services and products and contributing to the development of more competitive and better organizations. My research has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, and I have authored chapters in internationally recognized academic books.

    In addition to my academic endeavors, I have extensive experience in educational administration, including the successful direction of multiple diploma programs at the Universidad de Santiago. I have held several leadership positions, notably serving as Secretary General of the International Network for Modernization and Innovation in Public Management. I have also been awarded competitive scholarships to pursue academic training abroad.
