I was born in Ecuador and pursued my medical studies at the Central University of Ecuador. I underwent training in Clinical Cardiology at the Hospital de Clínicas "Dr. Manuel Quintela" - Universidad de la República in Montevideo, Uruguay. Subsequently, I completed my training in cardiac multi-image at Cardiocentro - Asociación Española, also in Montevideo, Uruguay. Currently, I am employed at the Military Hospital of Quito, Ecuador, where I offer outpatient cardiology consultations. My responsibilities include conducting transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, as well as stress testing, encompassing both pharmacologic and exercise stress echocardiography. Additionally, I oversee the cardiac tomography and resonance section.
