About me
I hold a Ph.D. in Business Administration from the University of Chile and work as an Assistant Professor at the University of Santiago, Chile. I have also been a Visiting PhD Student at the University of Lisbon, Portugal. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
My research interests include employee well-being, job insecurity, job performance, work-technology relationships, and neurodiversity in the workplace. The overarching goal of my research is to enhance organizational and workplace environments and foster the delivery of high-quality services and products to develop more competitive organizations. My work has been published in relevant scientific journals, and I have contributed chapters to internationally recognized books.
Beyond teaching and research, I have extensive experience in management, overseeing several successful diploma programs at the University of Santiago. I have also served in multiple leadership roles, including Secretary General of the International Network for Modernization and Innovation in Public Management. I have also received scholarships to study abroad.
I am a native Spanish speaker with an advanced level of English and an intermediate level of Portuguese. Additionally, I am proficient in research tools, including SPSS, R, Mplus, and ATLAS.ti.
