I’m a research assistant and communications student blending qualitative research with audiovisual design and creative production.
What I'm looking for
I’m a communications student at the University of Lima, currently in the 10th semester and ranked in the top 20%. My professional focus combines communications with research and gender studies, and I bring a creative, collaborative approach to turning ideas into actionable outputs.
As a Research Assistant at the Scientific Research Institute of the University of Lima (April 2025 – March 2026), I’ve supported systematic literature review and theoretical discussion. I also help develop organizational tools for research projects (meeting minutes, task lists, calendars, and activity logs), draft administrative reports, and contribute to structuring and writing academic papers.
Alongside research, I work freelance in Illustration, Animation, and Graphic Design (2018 – Present). I handle concept development for visual proposals, client relations, project scheduling, and budget management, using tools like Adobe Suite and Procreate to produce 2D illustration and animation.
I strengthen my research practice through training in MAXQDA and workshops, and I apply qualitative methods such as coding and deductive/inductive qualitative analysis. I’ve also contributed to academic publications, including work on media literacy, misinformation interventions, and student-focused desinformation studies.
