About me
Hi! I'm Laura, a maker at heart who loves exploring tools, materials, and ideas through hands-on experimentation. I'm especially excited about connecting with the maker community, learning from other curious minds, and discovering how different tools come to life in FabLabs around the world. I'm based in Monterrey, Mexico, where I work at the Eugenio Garza Lagüera Entrepreneurship Institute at Tecnológico de Monterrey, supporting maker culture, prototyping, and creative learning across different spaces and communities.
Previous work
I love visiting and working in maker spaces, and I've had the opportunity to visit multiple FabLabs around the world, connecting with talented makers and learning through collaboration.
From a young age, I've enjoyed creating things with my hands; to the point where I studied Innovation and Development Engineering, where I learned how to design and build prototypes while also developing DIY projects as a personal hobby.
At Tecnológico de Monterrey, I co-created a STEAM Social Service program, contributing to a student maker group called ITERA, and supported the organization of Maker Faires and maker community events. I recently designed a hands-on class focused on prototyping, which I will begin teaching soon.
Finally, I participated in the organization and execution of the winning Fab City Challenge: BiodiverCities, a project about sustainable, locally driven solutions.
Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn to learn more about my work and connect.
