Bio
I'm an Industrial and Systems Engineering student at UTEP (anticipated December 2026), currently pursuing a Master's in Systems Engineering (anticipated December 2027) with a 3.94 GPA. I graduated as Student Valedictorian and in the Top 5% of my class, and I'm Six Sigma Yellow Belt certified with a Green Belt in progress this spring. I currently serve as President of the Honor Society of Industrial Engineers, Alpha Pi Mu.
My consulting focus is AI adoption in manufacturing and industrial and systems engineering practice. I research how manufacturers actually succeed at adopting AI, not just what tools they buy, and turn that research into practical roadmaps for teams that don't have time to read the journals themselves.
I'm currently a Summer Research Facilitator at UTEP's Alamito STEAM Center, and previously worked as a Technical Sales Intern at Ecolab-Nalco Water, where I supported water treatment optimization across more than a dozen industrial accounts.
