Bio

Thanks to God, I have been working for over ten years as a Tech Engineer at a company in the electricity market. I have more than 15 years of experience in various fields, including software development (mainly with Java), physical and cloud technology infrastructure, database administration, data analysis, and cybersecurity. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Applied Technology Sciences from Brigham Young University–Idaho, USA, and a Master’s degree in Software Engineering and Computer Systems from UNIR Mexico, as well as certifications from the Python Institute and (ISC)².

I have also been a speaker and workshop instructor at events such as the Congress of Science and Systems Students (COECYS), the Python Guatemala community, and I have volunteered as an instructor in data analysis and Python programming courses for the community. Additionally, I am passionate about education and innovation and have participated in the training and development of several technology professionals who manage physical or cloud infrastructure.
