I have a degree in Metallurgical Engineering from the Universidad Industrial de Santander (Colombia) (2012), a Master's in Materials Science and Engineering from the Federal University of Ceará (2017), and also holds a double PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering at the Federal University of Ceará (Brazil) and at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain). I have experience in advanced characterization techniques (XRD, XPS, SEM, EDS, RAMAN, FTIR, etc.), in non-destructive testing, mechanical testing and application of steel corrosion techniques. I also have work experience (more than 5 years) in the area of inspection and maintenance of equipment used in the oil industry and the railway industry.
