About

I'm a Product Design Engineering student at Elisava Barcelona, graduating in summer 2026.

I'm driven by curiosity about the world around us and where it's heading — questioning how things are done today, looking critically at what surrounds us, and imagining how they could be different. I see design as a way to respond to that future, bringing together technology, science, and nature to create more innovative and meaningful solutions.

That curiosity is also what makes me want to be involved throughout the different stages of a project, particularly in research. I enjoy looking at cultural and technological shifts, identifying where change might be needed, and turning those insights into concrete design opportunities. My projects have taken different directions, from developing bio-based materials to exploring the relationship between fashion and technology, but they all come from the same desire to question what already exists and explore what could come next.

I'm looking for an environment where research, experimentation, and creative thinking come together to shape new possibilities.

This project investigates the integration of printed electronics using carbon-based inks on biopolymer substrates as a sustainable alternative to conventional e-textiles. Through Material-Driven Design methodologies, scientific research, speculative design, and Embodied Design Ideation, new forms of interaction between body, materials, and technology are explored, evaluating their viability from technical, environmental, and industrial criteria. The result is a biocompostable luminous biowearable capable of transforming tactile contact into light signals through printed capacitive sensors and optical fiber, providing a shared non-verbal language in festival environments. The system demonstrates the viability of sustainable, interactive wearable devices compatible with future applications in flexible electronics and bio-based materials. #PrintedElectronics #Bioplastics #SustainableWearables Full project documentation available here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BTaNOW5YDlJcbsERjBDohxJJcxHGL4We/view?usp=sharing
