PhD in Chemical & Bioprocess Engineering, with over ten years of multidisciplinary experience in research and teaching across electrochemical systems, material design, and energy conversion and storage technologies. My expertise centers on the development of photo- and electrocatalytic nanomaterials for sustainable energy applications.
Currently, I serve as a Researcher at the Millennium Institute on Green Ammonia as an Energy Vector (MIGA, Chile), where I provide scientific and technical advisory to the administrative team and guide institutional decision-making on specialized scientific matters. My role includes academic mentorship for students and researchers, as well as reviewing, editing, and authoring scientific documentation, ensuring high standards and rigor in research articles related to ammonia synthesis and oxidation.
Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Monash University (Australia) focusing on advanced electrochemical ammonia oxidation via photo-electrocatalysis (thanks to the Chile Postdoctoral Fellowship Abroad), and also Postdoctoral Researcher position at Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH), working on ammonia oxidation via electrocatalysis.
Outside academia, I am the co-founder of CyM Lab, a science and technology consultancy supporting SMEs with strategic advisory services and technical project collaborations involving major mining companies.
I have experience in the design and fabrication of electrochemical cells and devices using CAD software, and possess advanced skills in nanomaterials characterization (XRD, SEM, and TEM).
I am recognized for my leadership, multidisciplinary collaboration, innovative problem-solving, and effective project management.
