Message

At Water Institute J.J. Strossmayer, I organize and carry out freshwater biomonitoring, analyze phytoplankton, and assess ecological water quality against national regulations. I also translate laboratory results into information and participate in report writing.

At Granum Salis Cooperative, I lead and support project execution, manage public procurement for four companies, and contribute to project proposals. I also manage ISO standard implementation and maintain website content.

At Secretaría Nacional de Planificación, I led the environmental component for the Ecuador 2030 plan and coordinated environmental analysis for border integration zones. My work there also assessed the impacts of human activities on ecosystems in the Galapagos and Amazon.

At Universidad San Francisco de Quito, I coordinated freshwater ecology research and produced project cartography. I later coordinated research projects and international events at Instituto BIOSFERA, and facilitated GIS lab training using ArcGIS 10.x.
