Hola! I’m Natalí, a Colombian systems engineer with extensive experience in IT consulting and agile methodologies. As a passionate advocate for technology and innovation, I recently earned my MSc in Engineering Management at ARU in the UK, proudly supported by the British Council Women in STEM Scholarship 2023-2024.
My journey reflects a deep love for learning, cultural exploration, and a commitment to driving meaningful change in STEM and beyond. Inspired by the words, 'What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?' I strive to embrace challenges and push boundaries.
Outside of my professional pursuits, I live a healthy lifestyle, enjoy hiking and road trips, and find inspiration in the arts whether through museum visits or live music events. Travelling and discovering new cultures fuel my curiosity and broaden my perspective.
I’m also deeply passionate about motivation and empowerment, believing in the transformative power of technology and collaboration.
I’m excited to share my journey and inspire others to pursue their dreams in STEM!
