That's me in Carnegie Mellon RESEARCH PERSONAL OPINIONS BLOG
My PhD research deals with Aerospace Systems Engineering, with special emphasis in the design, control and optimization of spacecraft trajectories. At a higher level, I'm also interested in computational and applied mathematics, mainly large scale optimization and analysis of nonlinear systems. Here is a description of my research, my CV, and professional interests. I'm a very outgoing person. I play guitar, read, dance, and drink coffee like crazy. I play ice hockey and ski. My family lives in Mexico City and I visit once a year. Also in Mexico are some of my best friends, whom I miss like crazy. In Pittsburgh, I've met incredibly interesting and intelligent people; they have made my PhD not only a professional experience, but a valuable lesson of life. Our times —as those of our ancestors— are also times of change. As the idiosyncrasy of societies is changing, some conflicts disappear and others arise. We have managed to erase some boundaries, but have also built immovable walls. We've gone farther than ever before, but it has been a bumpy ride. Where are we —the humans— going? Are we heading towards prosperity or annihilation? It is very simple to be deceived by the routine of life. My intention with this blog is to have a documented retrospective of my life: happy entries correspond to happy life, boring entries correspond to boring life. The simple moments are the most valuable; also the most easily forgotten. I hope to keep this blog as a remainder of those moments that built my past bringing me to this very present.
