I lead immersive exhibitions and optimize operations through project management, service design, and human-centered systems thinking.
What I'm looking for
I lead the design and installation of an immersive exhibition for the Feria Nacional de San Marcos at Playmohistoria, coordinating design, production, printing, assembly, AV integration, logistics, and accessibility for a scalable traveling model.
At Playmohistoria, I co-designed a life-sized museum experience that hosted more than 150 school visits and increased attendance by 30%, earning national recognition as “Most Innovative Museum.” I use service design, journey mapping, operational blueprints, and on-site observation to improve flow, signage, and engagement.
I also build practical learning experiences, having designed robotics and programming curricula for 200 students and guided more than 20 functional prototypes. My work combines industrial engineering, process optimization, AI tools, and intercultural leadership shaped by experiences in Mexico, Germany, and France.
