I am a Mexican geographer, researcher and director of Facta Terrae Living Lab, an international laboratory focused on territorial intelligence, smart cities, climate change, geospatial analysis and urban innovation. My work connects geography, climate action, digital technologies and territorial governance, with a particular interest in how cities and regions can use data, spatial analysis and collaborative knowledge to respond to the climate crisis.
I have a background in Geography, Local Development and Territory, and I am currently developing doctoral research in Geography and Territorial Planning. My academic and professional work focuses on multiscalar territorial processes, digital platforms, urban transformation, climate risk, spatial justice and smart city strategies. I also teach in graduate programs related to data science and public management, where I promote the use of spatial data, GIS and critical urban analysis for evidence-based decision-making.
In addition to my work on cities and territorial intelligence, I have participated in climate change research and communication related to glacier retreat through Ecoseva, including fieldwork and public dissemination on the disappearance and transformation of high-mountain glaciers as visible indicators of the climate crisis. This experience has strengthened my conviction that climate change must be communicated not only as an abstract global process, but as a territorial reality that transforms water systems, landscapes, communities, infrastructures and futures.
Through Facta Terrae Living Lab, I seek to build bridges between scientific knowledge, local governments, communities, universities, international networks and technological tools. My objective is to contribute to climate restoration from a territorial perspective, translating global climate goals into local and regional strategies that are measurable, inclusive and spatially grounded.
