I am a Mexican lawyer specialising in constitutional law, judicial reasoning, and the digital transformation of justice institutions. I currently work at Mexico’s Supreme Court, where I lead the monitoring of binding precedents and support projects aimed at strengthening access to legal knowledge across the country. Previously, in the chambers of Justice Javier Laynez, I developed an AI-assisted analytical framework that streamlined constitutional review and improved the organisation of case law. I earned my Bachelor of Laws from Universidad Panamericana, writing a thesis on due process and judicial impartiality. My work lies at the intersection of law and technology, and I am particularly interested in advancing responsible AI governance within public institutions.

I am legal counsel with fifteen years of experience applying strategic intelligence to identify, analyze and address public law, regulatory and policy problems that may result in economic, political or institutional risks across both corporate and governmental sectors. Whether in government, the private sector, or academia, my professional experience has been grounded in the regulated sectors of the economy broadly, and in the energy industries in particular.

Throughout my career, I have served in various public roles within the Mexican public sector; particularly at the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Public Administration in the Executive Branch, as well as in the federal judiciary. I have also worked in the private sector as a senior associate at a law firm, where I led the regulated industries and policy practice. In addition, my professional development has been enriched by intensive research projects for academic institutions and consulting firms.

Today, having a multidisciplinary perspective is essential for developing a comprehensive understanding of the risks that may affect the objectives of public or private organizations operating in complex local and international environments, where geopolitical, economic, social, and technological variables interact simultaneously. Such perspectives also enable the anticipation and design of effective risk-management strategies.
