Brief Biography

I studied chemistry at the National Autonomous University of Mexico with focus on computational chemistry (QTAIM analysis and computational thermochemistry) and organic synthesis (carbohydrates). Then I was awarded a CONACyT scholarship to do a PhD at the University of York studying the applications of deep eutectic solvents in catalysis and the development of redox-active ionic liquids for energy storage applications.

At SEMS my research focus on the study of novel electrolyte formulations based on deep eutectic solvents for redox flow batteries.
