Data and operations lead at IASAMA who rebuilt the service-data pipeline for public-policy decisions.
What I'm looking for
At the Institute for Mental Health and Addiction Care (IASAMA), I rebuilt the collection pipeline, database structure, and analysis so program leads can understand the institute’s service value chain from one set of records.
I reorganized compliance indicators around the institute’s Logical Framework Matrix and built study prototypes from historical and new extracts to inform Mexico City public-policy decisions.
Previously, I designed data systems for procurement, operations, and services at Rakitin Group S.A.P.I. de C.V. and the National Pedagogical University (UPN). At Mexico’s National Electoral Institute, I technically supervised critical-infrastructure contracts totaling MXN 250 million.
