PhD student in Textile Engineering with experience in functionalization of fibers with active agents for the treatment of chronic wounds, along with several characterization techniques and polymeric synthesis. My integrated master degree in Biomedical Engineering, which constitutes a very multidisciplinary course, has provided me with the ability to adapt to different environments and solve new challenges. From a personal standpoint, I consider myself a very dedicated, persistent and organized professional, always working on maintaining a good teamwork environment.
