About

I am a PhD Candidate at the Complutense University of Madrid whose research focuses on the history and philosophical foundations of standard quantum logics. My research explores the relationship between logic and physics, with particular attention to the ontological and epistemological consequences of that relationship.

Among other things, this website contains a selection of my publications, teaching experience, as well as a sentence explaining what this website contains.
