South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, United States
I am from Colombia and love to dance salsa. It’s a good break from physics that lets my brain relax. I have been studying the amazing neutrino for 10 years and was involved as the Young DUNE co-spokesperson liaison, connecting the spokespeople with early career scientists. I had this great chance to help with different tutorials we do within the collaboration to familiarize new collaborators with the software and show them the first steps to take, because when you arrive on a new project, it’s very challenging to begin from scratch and is nice to have some help starting up. I’m also interested in outreach activities and increasing access to math and science for high school students and the general public. I like to show them the amazing fruits of science. It is awesome to find how interested people are in science once you find a good way to communicate the results of the scientific world to them. And for several years, I’ve been involved in the organization of activities with low-resource kids when I go back to Colombia at Christmas.
