Profile

Civil Engineer from Escuela Superior de Ingeniería y Arquitectura of Instituto Politecnico Nacional in 2005. Master of Engineering in 2007 and Doctor of Engineering in 2011 with a specialization in structures from the Graduate Studies Division of the Faculty of Engineering at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico. He has participated as author and co-author in various publications, including outreach articles, papers in national and international conferences, indexed journals, and research reports. He has supervised more than 30 undergraduate and graduate theses.

He is currently a C-level tenured research professor at Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana in the area of structures, where he has worked since 2011, teaching courses at undergraduate and graduate levels.

He served as Coordinator of the Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering at UAM-Azcapotzalco from June 2016 to February 2020, and as Divisional Coordinator for Academic Planning and Development from 2022 to 2024. From 2024 to 2025 he was a member of the editorial committee of the scientific outreach journal Azcatl. He headed the Materials Department at the Azcapotzalco campus from 2024 to 2025. He is currently the General Coordinator of Institutional Information, a position he has held since 2025.

He has served as member, secretary, and vice president of the board of directors of the Mexican Society of Structural Engineering. In 2017, he acted as Coordinator of the control center for earthquake damage inspection brigades at the College of Civil Engineers of Mexico. In 2020, he completed a sabbatical stay at the firm CANDE Ingenieros, where he developed the design and implementation of a Research and Technological Development department.

From 2020 to 2024, he was Coordinator of the Academic Council of the College of Civil Engineers of Mexico. He is a member of the review subcommittee for the Complementary Technical Standard for Seismic Design, a member of the Structural Safety Technical Committee of the CICM, a member of the Soil-Structure Interaction Committee of the Mexican Society of Geotechnical Engineering, and an advisor to the 40th Board of Directors of the College of Civil Engineers of Mexico. He is a member of the Technical Council of the Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering at Universidad Iberoamericana Mexico City and of the Advisory Council of the Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering at La Salle University.
