What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my process engineering, simulation, and modeling skills to industrial-scale innovation and optimization projects while continuing to grow in plant and process design.

I've designed and simulated a 500,000 ton/year CO₂-to-methanol process in ChemCAD, completing mass and energy balances, equipment sizing, and CapEx/OpEx feasibility evaluation. I also develop kinetic reactor models in Python and model distillation networks in MATLAB.

As a final-year Chemical Engineering candidate at Universidad de Salamanca, with an Erasmus exchange at ENSCL in France, I've combined technical study with tutoring, hospitality work, and community volunteering. I bring clear communication, resilience under pressure, and hands-on experience in unit operations, biodiesel scale-up, GC-FID characterization, process design, and industrial fluid-system sizing.
