"Life always offers us two possibilities: day and night, the eagle or the serpent, construction or destruction, punishment or forgiveness, but there is always a third hidden possibility that unifies the two: discover it" - Grandma told Malinalli. Malinche, Laura Esquivel.

I like to define myself beyond my gender, age and profession as a human being in construction. I am still getting to know myself, deciding my likes and dislikes, being guided by what I am passionate about, trying to be useful every day, giving my all to learn something worth teaching, to live and not just survive, to be aware and sensitive to my environment.

Along this path I was trained as a lawyer, I did a master’s degree in management for development, a specialization in regional development management and another in tax law. I have been working for more than 16 years in advisory roles in public policy, legal management, regulatory production, coordination and monitoring of projects on issues related to sustainable development, land use planning, public administration, strengthening of public institutions and grassroots organizations, land use planning and management.

I like legal and technical management roles, and the coordination of projects that bring together a diversity of profiles.

I consider that one of my main skills is listening, understanding the needs of others, translating them and helping to create paths of understanding, that is why I try every day to help find that “third hidden possibility that unifies”.
