Hello there. It’s Lucas. I recently earned a Ph.D. in Statistics from UConn. Soon after graduating, I began working with species distribution as a Postdoctoral researcher in the Global Change Research Group at UCSC. Currently, I am an Assistant Professor at PUC Chile. My research interests primarily revolve around statistical computing, Bayesian inference, spatial statistics, and exploring innovative applications of statistical methodologies. Apart from that, I enjoy learning about programming languages and playing football (or soccer, pff).

In this website, you’ll find some of my blog posts, mainly discussing R or statistical concepts, as well as my CV, publications, and (someday) ongoing projects.
