I've been a faculty at the UPR-Mayaguez campus since 1996.

Post doctorate: Mayo Clinic & Foundation

Doctorate: Rutgers University
Advisors: Dr. Richard Mendelsohn and Alan Mautone

Bachelors: University of Puerto Rico-Humacao

I decided to return to Puerto Rico for several reasons:
The first and for most, there was a lot that Puerto Rico gave to me as a student and in return, I was committed to give back and contribute to the research and academic resources of Puerto Rico.

Secondly, the University of Puerto Rico is overflowing with young, highly intellegent and motivated students. Therefore, I had to contribute to there development as future professionals.
