Biografía
My professional background combines the fields of Education, Dissemination, and Engineering. After a central dedication to Electrical Engineering for more than eight years, combined with an intense commitment to Dissemination and Education activities, I am currently working at Hitachi Energy as Global Training Coordinator. In addition, since 2024, I work as a Substitute Lecturer in the Area of Didactics of Mathematics at the Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC), and since 2019 I have collaborated as an external professor in the degree “University Expert in Digital Competences for Educators“ at the same university. My research interests are oriented to Educational Sciences and specifically related to the areas of Didactics of Mathematics, Educational Technology, Digital Competences, and STEM Education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). I have developed my professional career mainly in the private sector, where I have worked at Hitachi Energy as an Global Training Coordinator (Feb.24 - today) and Energy and Training Senior Consultant (Oct.20 - Feb.24). I have also worked as an Electrical Engineer at IDOM (Feb.19 - Oct.20), Ayesa (Mar.18 - Feb.19) and the Oceanic Platform of the Canary Islands (Feb.17 - Sep.17). Moreover, I have complemented this professional activity with an intense dedication to STEM Dissemination and Education activities since 2011, providing consulting and training services, as well as creating national organizations for the dissemination of scientific culture such as Hablando de Ciencia , Scenio , or Vector Divulgación . I have owned an engineering dissemination YouTube channel since 2017 called Sígueme la Corriente , with over 185.000 subscribers and 6.000.000 views as of 1st December 2024. My dissemination activity has been recognized with three 1st awards and two honorable mentions at the Spanish Ciencia en Acción national awards. I have been an Electrical Engineer since 2015 by the ULPGC (special mention of the Spanish Wind Energy Association for my final degree project), with a specialization stay at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). I continued my education later with a master’s degree in Industrial Technologies at the ULPGC, which I finished in 2017 (final master's thesis semifinalist in the 9th Edition of the EDPR University Challenge). I received my PhD in Education from the University of La Laguna in 2024, with Summa Cum Laude calification.
