Studies

Professional Activity

After completing her degree in Chemical Engineering she worked in DeAcero Planta Monterrey as a training manager in the Quality Department. Afterwards she began a master's degree at Tec de Monterrey, working as a project assistant in the Department of Industrial Engineering. Later she served as a professor in the same university at the Departments of Industrial Engineering and Industrial Design. In the first department she was the project coordinator of students in ninth semester, who worked in companies of various branches. These projects were carried out during the academic year, resolving any areas of opportunity presented in the company. Moreover, in the Department of Industrial Design she taught the courses Ergonomics I and Ergonomics II to students in fourth and fifth semester respectively. She is currently a doctoral student in Engineering Science with speciality in Biotechnology at Tecnológico de Monterrey (Campus Monterrey).
