About

I am a physicist with a strong background in fluid dynamics, especially in turbulence.

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Institut de Physique de Nice at the Université Côte d’Azur (France), funded by the Initiative d’Excellence (IDEX) programme. I work in collaboration with Christophe Brouzet and Jérémie Bec on the dynamics of fibres in turbulent wall-bounded flows, combining experiments and Direct Numerical Simulations to investigate the coupling between particle dynamics and turbulent flows in confined configurations.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Physics of Fluids department at the University of Twente in the Netherlands, working in collaboration with Sander G. Huisman and Detlef Lohse. My research focuses on the melting dynamics of ice in different scenarios, including the interaction between neighbouring melting ice bodies and the effect of oscillatory flows. The approach is based on idealised configurations, aimed at identifying the fundamental physical mechanisms governing phase change. I use the AFiD-MuRPhFi code, which models the solid-liquid transition with a phase-field method.

I hold a Ph.D. in Physics from the Physics department of the Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences at the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina), where I also obtained my degree (licenciatura) in physics. During my Ph.D., under the supervision of Pablo Cobelli and Pablo Mininni in the Fluids and Plasma group (FLiP), I worked on particle dynamics in turbulent flows, combining laboratory experiments in a von Kármán swirling flow, with Direct Numerical Simulations using the GHOST code. My work focused on Lagrangian measurements of particle trajectories to investigate velocity and acceleration statistics, infer properties of the carrier flow, and study clustering of inertial and finite-size particles.

I am part of the editorial board of Physical Review Fluids as an Early Career Board Member, where I am responsible for outreach activities of the journal on social media.
I am also involved in the organising committee of the monthly PRFluids Journal Club, along with Daphné Lemasquerier (St. Andrews), Lin Fu (HKUST), and Georgios Rigas (Imperial). We organise monthly live discussions with authors about recent publications in the journal.
