I’m an Industrial Engineer specialized in Human Factors Engineering, but started my career as a Mechanical Engineer for the Space Shuttle Main Engines at the Kennedy Space Center. While at KSC, after completing a Masters in Industrial Engineering, I transitioned to Space Shuttle and International Space Station processing (preparing for launches, handling and loading payloads, return from space, etc). I also did some rocket (unmanned space flight) work. Seeing the end of the Shuttle era approach, I was fortunate to find another dream job, at Walt Disney World: Senior Industrial Engineer. That came to an end when my husband transitioned from Aerospace to Petroleum Engineering, and his first assignment took us to England. I then realized that I needed to make my job mobile and flexible for our growing family, so as I got closer to finishing my PhD, I started a consulting company. Since 2006, I have dedicated my career to help high risk industries (Oil & Gas, Aerospace and Nuclear) improve organizational performance through Human Performance optimization, Human Error prevention, Risk Management and Process Safety.

Human Factors EngineerGe Vernova Dec 2023 - PresentHelping accelerate the energy transition by providing Human Factors Engineering expertise to the design of advanced nuclear reactors. We are working on a Boiling Water Reactor that uses proven technology while incorporating safety by intelligent design: the BWRX-300. This is a small modular nuclear reactor featuring passive safety such that neither external power nor operator action will be required to maintain a safe state, even in extreme circumstances. It is a 300 MWe water-cooled natural circulation Small Modular Reactor, and the tenth (hence the X) generation of the Boiling Water Reactor (BWR). -
Board MemberThe National Academies Of Sciences, Engineering, And Medicine Jan 2021 - PresentWashington, Dc, UsThe overarching goal of the Gulf Offshore Energy Safety Board (GOESB) of the Gulf Research Program is to help reduce the systemic risk for offshore energy activities. As a board member, I am advising in the development of studies, projects and other activities that reduce overall risk, reduce the likelihood of a catastrophic accident from occurring, and should an incident occur, lessen the severity of consequences to people and the environment. -

EntrepreneurPasión Ibérica Ranch Feb 2018 - Sep 2020After a very intense four-year period of work, I took a sabbatical from consulting. While searching for an investment opportunity, my husband and I learned of the recent arrival to the US of the rare Iberian pigs, until then only available in Spain. Foreseeing the need for farms to raise these animals to satisfy the upcoming market, we saw a business opportunity and started a farm. Pasión Ibérica Ranch now produces over 1,200 free range acorn-fed pure Iberian pigs annually, and is currently expanding to an additional location to grow further.- Turned a distressed piece of land into a fully working farm with the required infrastructure (water, electricity, housing, etc), a nursery, animal hospital, barn, and multiple pastures in the first year. - Performed all tasks involved in starting and running a business: planning a budget, crafting a business plan, creating a legal entity, hiring personnel, designing the infrastructure, purchasing machinery, choosing vendors, making investment decisions, accounting, negotiating contracts, and more.
