About Me

Mission Statement: To deliver measurable impact by using data to optimize processes, maximize efficiency, and leverage the power of community collaboration to achieve shared success. 

I am Maria, born and raised in Barcelona, and a passionate traveler. Currently, I am pursuing a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a keen interest in the MedTech and Consulting industries.

At NYU, I actively engage in various organizations beyond the classroom. I am a member of the International Student Board Advisory helping provide unique experiences to international students at Tandon as Programming Coordinator. Additionally, I hold positions at the Office of Undergraduate Academics at Tandon and serve as a Teaching Assistant for the General Engineering Course. This year, I am privileged to be part of the Smart Microphysiological System for Precision Medicine VIP, focusing on engineering automatic and biomimetic microphysiological systems for precision medicine.

Driven by my passion for the development of medical devices, I previously interned at INBRAIN Neuroelectronics, a pioneering startup working on graphene brain interfaces to decode brain signals. I drafted reports on the results of technology obtained after animal studies and contributed to primary research on Parkinson's disease.

Beyond my academic and professional pursuits, I am also passionate about playing basketball. The sport has been a lifelong passion of mine, offering not only a way to stay active but also a sense of teamwork and competition that I deeply value.
