About me

I am a professional in the area of industrial engineering, manufacturing, and project management. I like order and structure as elements to achieve quality in what one does. I consider “projects” to be that possibility of creating new things in the industry, family and myself. Teamwork, and the ability to learn on your own, are the most important skills that we currently require, because the knowledge is so varied that we need to work alongside people with different skills, and constantly acquire new knowledge to achieve goals and targets.
