Summary

An physical therapist with 10 years of experience and former director member of the Chilean Society of Oncological Kinesiology (SOCHKO).

I have been trained with the ability to integrate knowledge acquired during clinical practice. I am proactive, responsible, and demonstrate empathy both in the workplace, socially and with patients, while seeking new challenges and achieving my goals. I currently work in the Oncology Critical Care Unit and collaborate with the development of prehabilitation programs for cancer patients or those who will undergo physiological stress interventions. I have also always been involved with sports, and therefore have a commitment to promoting healthy living and the importance it can have on a person's quality of life.
