About

I am a dermatology resident at Mayo Clinic Florida and a graduate student in Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Healthcare at the Mayo Clinic Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Prior to joining Mayo Clinic, I completed residency training in Aesthetic Medicine in Colombia, served as faculty at Universidad del Rosario, and led ADEI - Aesthetics and Dermatology Institute.

My background spans clinical care, medical education, research, and healthcare innovation. Through clinical care, research, and innovation, I am particularly interested in skin cancer prevention and treatment, surgical innovation, and the responsible integration of artificial intelligence into dermatologic practice.
