Biography
I studied my undergraduate degree in Engineering and Architecture at National Polytechnic Institute (IPN) from 2006 to 2011. Once I finished my studies, I worked for Architecture companies in Mexico City as a Designer and Construction supervisor of residential and non-domestic buildings. Later on, I was a awarded a Conacyt scholarship to study a MSc in Environmental Design and Engineering at University College London (UCL), where I strengthened my passion for research to apply for a PhD programme in Engineering and Built Environment at Edinburgh Napier University. My research focuses on applying the Circular Economy to the Built Environment, as a promising panacea to cut carbon emissions from building refurbishment, encouraging the reuse and conservation of the building stock in the UK.
