Education

My professional career has been built on a solid foundation in chemical sciences, beginning with my Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from the Francisco José de Caldas District University. From the outset, I focused my interest on nanotechnology and advanced materials, actively participating in research groups (SEMNANOUD) and science outreach projects that sought to connect technical knowledge with social impact. In the field of research, I have diverse international experience. At the University of Almería, I specialized in the synthesis and functionalization of TiO₂ nanomaterials applied to the environment, as well as in the development of materials for photovoltaic solar cells (DSSCs) and academic simulations. Subsequently, I consolidated my technical specialization with two postgraduate degrees in Spain: a Master's in Solar Energy and a Master's in Advanced Chemistry Laboratory, which have allowed me to master cutting-edge techniques in physicochemical characterization, spectroscopy, and structural elucidation

Research

My commitment to the scientific development of my country, Colombia, has been unwavering. As the Academic Research Representative at the Graphene HUB for the Ministry of Mines and Energy, I led the formulation of R&D projects in nanochemistry to design solar energy and environmental remediation solutions adapted to the national context. This work was complemented by over seven years of teaching experience at institutions such as CUN and Universidad Distrital, where I worked on strengthening STEM skills and scientific communication. Throughout this journey, I have published research ranging from the analysis of environmental nanoparticles to the social impact of higher education, reflecting my comprehensive vision of science. My fundamental objective is to apply this technical and academic background to establish myself as a leading figure in nanochemistry in Colombia, promoting the development of next-generation technologies that position the country at the forefront of innovation in sustainable materials.
