I am a very enthusiastic and strongly motivated researcher in information systems engineering. I have become an expert in model-driven software engineering and have gained significant experiences in software evolution and information systems traceability. My research focuses on building engineering solutions to support rapid development of high-quality software products.
I enjoy designing and implementing original engineering artefacts, like modelling tools an notations for producing and maintaining software. I like as well conducting empirical evaluations to analyse the implementation of new artefacts in practice. Specially, I like to do research in traceability engineering.
As a University teacher, I like being creative by involving research and teaching, while introducing trendy and catching material to my classes. I like to explore new techniques to facilitate classroom interaction.
Before joining the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, I worked at Utrecht University as an Assistant Professor. There I greatly improved my teaching skills and had the challenge to redesign bachelor and master courses. Additionally, I worked as a researcher at the research centre on software production methods (PROS Research Centre) at the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia, Spain. I keep my research collaborations with PROS in the line of model driven software development. I hold a PhD in Computer Science from Universitat Politecnica de Valencia, Cum Laude.
My research line has been honoured with the CAiSE PhD award in 2017.
