People say that I am extremely precise, but I like to do things well. When I work on a project, I take the time to get everything done in the best possible way, and I hope that the people who work with me will do the same. I always liked to build things. When I was a kid, I played with LEGO toys. I spent a lot of time building radio control cars and planes (and sometimes I still do). After finishing high school, I decided to study civil engineering. I liked the mechanical computational design of structures and mechanisms, and that’s why I did a post degree in Numerical Methods in Engineering. I learned the numerical techniques and programming languages with which I could develop my skills in mechanics. And now I apply it to DUNE. It is wonderful to be part of an experiment of this magnitude, and to be engaged with the best specialists in the world in their respective areas of knowledge.
