FAB ACADEMY 2024 
FABLAB U. CONTINENTAL, PERU

About me...

My name is Jose Angel Palomares Pedraza, I am in the city of Arequipa. I am an Electronic Engineer with a specialty in Automation and Control. I am currently working in the Fab Lab of the Continental University of Arequipa, with the position of Fabber Tech.

The Fab Academy seems to me to be a very interesting option to consolidate my knowledge in digital fabrication. I hope to be able to develop myself in these surroundings together with other people at an international level in the realization of professional projects.
