Organizations That Shaped My Expertise

Luz y Fuerza del Centro

Over an eighteen-year career at Luz y Fuerza del Centro, a century-old government-owned company in Mexico, I progressed from Technical Assistant to Departmental Manager. This achievement placed me among the top 300 executives out of more than 45,000 employees, until the company was shut down by the government.

L-12 Subway System

Supervising the construction of Line 12 was more than just a job—it was a transformative experience that shaped both my worldview and career. It served as a crucible where I was tested, refined, and ultimately strengthened. From walking through empty, dark tunnels to testing some of the most advanced systems, the project left a lasting impact on my personal and professional journey.

Petroleos Mexicanos

My experience in safety at Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex) was a rigorous immersion into a high-stakes environment. Charged with safeguarding personnel and assets across diverse operations, I developed a deep understanding of hazard identification, risk assessment, and emergency response protocols.

Walbridge and Ingeteam

Working for private companies has afforded me extensive experience in navigating and applying both European and American electrical standards. In this diverse professional environment, I have gained a comprehensive understanding of the distinct regulations and requirements that govern electrical systems in different industries.
