Circular economy researcher for construction: co-design approaches to turn waste co-utilisation into scalable materials and solutions. Experienced coordinating national/international projects and building partnerships across academia–industry.
We are Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, a leading institution dedicated to engineering and technology education and research. With a strong commitment to innovation and excellence, we foster a collaborative environment where students and faculty work together to tackle real-world challenges. Our diverse programs and cutting-edge research initiatives empower us to contribute significantly to various industries, making us a key player in the global technological landscape. Join us as we strive to develop the skills and knowledge necessary for a sustainable and innovative future.
My research sits at the intersection of the circular economy and the construction sector, exploring how co-design can turn the co-utilization of diverse waste streams into practical, scalable solutions. I am particularly interested in moving from “waste as a problem” to “waste as a resource” through collaborative design with industry and public stakeholders. I bring strong experience coordinating national and international R&I projects (including EU-funded initiatives), building multidisciplinary teams, and translating research results into implementable pathways—especially in cement-based and fibre-reinforced materials, recycled-content products, sustainability in construction, and standardisation-oriented work.
Architecture + Materials Science team in search for a consortium on co-design, circular construction, waste valorisation, TRL/scale-up, and prototype testing/validation.
