All my life I have been energized by learning different aspects of organizing and doing work better, to do smart work. It is my mission to share intelligent effort principles and methods in the area of embedded systems testing and tech leadership that create a link between efficiency and sustainability. My dream is to work as an engineering manager on innovative projects, in an environment that promotes inclusion in diverse thinking and unlimited imagination, where there are no limits to creative solutions, and opportunities are given to those who are hungry to explore and innovate.

As an engineer and PhD researcher, I specialize in embedded systems testing. As a leader, I managed several engineering teams working on industrial automation components. My work took me across the world, like the United States, Spain, and Germany.

When I’m not working on my Ph.D. research, coordinating projects, or supporting my team members, I enjoy playing music, painting miniatures, and sharing my knowledge through mentoring and education programs. I am also passionate about traveling around the world with my family and speaking on anything and everything tech.
