About me

Biotechnologist with hands-on experience in environmental and agro-biotech projects.

I have worked on initiatives connecting biotechnology with sustainability, including bioeconomy applications and community-based environmental research in Latin America. My background combines wet lab techniques, project coordination, and policy-oriented research, with a strong focus on translating scientific knowledge into practical, real-world solutions.

I am also actively involved in building the Synthetic Biology Network for Latin America, promoting collaboration, policy development, and opportunities in SynBio across the region.
