Water Experience

I am a water resources researcher and professor at the Catholic University of Peru in the Civil Engineering department. I have a doctorate in geo-environmental sciences (UCLouvain-Belgium) and my research is focused on sediment transport and erosion processes in the Peruvian Andean mountains. Likewise, I work to develop models, databases, and initiatives in favour of local and regional water security. Additionally, I have worked for more than two years in consulting in hydrology and hydraulics for hydroelectric energy generation projects. Currently, I try to convey my passion to my students.
