I hold a permanent position in the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), where I work at the Institute of Materials Science of Seville (ICMS, Spain), at the Multifunctional Optical Materials group. I received my Ph.D. at the University of Seville (Spain) in 2010. I worked as a postdoc at AMOLF (The Netherlands) from 2011 until 2013 and at the ICMS from 2014 until 2017. Since 2017, I lead an ERC Starting Grant project devoted to develop novel nanostructured optical materials to improve the performance of light-emitting devices. Finally, I highlight that in 2014 I received the Young Researcher Award from the Royal Academy of Sciences of Seville and in 2017 the Young Researcher Award from the BBVA Foundation-Royal Spanish Society of Physics as a result of remarkable scientific achievements.
