About

I am an energy engineer with experience in industrial energy efficiency, HVAC systems, heat and mass transfer, pumping systems, and product development. Most recently at Villarreal Equipment Division, I have been working as a Product Development Specialist since November 2025, building on my career that started in 2023, giving me over 2 years of professional experience in energy engineering and product development. My work spans the development of pumping equipment and pool accessories, market analysis, and supplier evaluation, using tools like Power BI, Excel with VBA, and SAP. I have led energy audits following ASHRAE and ISO standards, optimized hydronic HVAC systems, and contributed to technical manuals for energy efficiency. I also have experience in energy consumption diagnostics, preventive maintenance, and power quality analysis using PQ Analyzers and SolidWorks.
