I am a PhD student in computer science at the Applied Software Engineering (ISA) research group and the SCORE Unit of Excellence. I hold a Bachelor’s degree and a Master’s degree in Software Engineering from the University of Seville (Spain).

My research lies at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Software Engineering, with a particular focus on how AI agents and language models are transforming software development. I am especially interested in understanding how these systems participate in real-world software projects, how developers collaborate with them, and how their growing adoption is reshaping software engineering practices.
