Introduction

I am a researcher in the Photonic Communication System Group in the Centre for Advanced Photonics and Electronics (CAPE) at the University of Cambridge.

I am also the chairman for the branch of Mexico of the St. Catharine’s College Society. The branch aims to promote activities of alumni of the college from or in Mexico. Recently, we have been promoting further links between Mexico and the college in academics and science (more information). 

I was a post-doctoral research fellow at the Centre for optics, photonics and lasers (COPL) in Laval University, Quebec, Canada. From March 2005 to Feb. 2007.

I was born in Mexico City. I obtained my B.Sc. degree in electronic engineering -major telecommunications- for the Universidad Autónoma Metropolita-Iztapalapa. From 1995 to 2000, I worked as system engineer in NEC de Mexico, a branch of NEC Corporation of Japan in optical transmission and access systems for Mexico and Central America countries.

I finished my Ph.D. degree in March 2005 at the Engineering Department of the University of Cambridge. My studies at Cambridge were sponsored by the National Council of Science and Technology of Mexico CONACyT.

In addition of my research work in England and Canada, I have extensively promoted the Mexican culture and academic links as former president of the Cambridge University Mexican Society and one of the founders of the Mexican Students Society of the United Kingdom.

Finally, as a personal note, I used to do lot of sport, (emphasised used to!). I am a brown belt in Karate Do-Shinkan, play Baseball in a Mexican semi-professional league and played and studied drums and percussions for 3 years. Now I play guitar just to enjoy Mexican boleros and popular songs!
