Education & Public Outreach

I started my public outreach and teacher experience as a PhD student in Chile. Since then, I really enjoy doing activities with the public to show them the beauty of our Universe. I am also usually on the lookout for new opportunities, so please, let me know if you are looking for a speaker or a teacher.
