BEST Bootcamp
(Business, Engineering, Science and Technology)
Loyola Marymount University
January 5 - January 11, 2026
Los Angeles, CA
During winter break, I participated in a week-long interdisciplinary bootcamp bringing together Business and STEM students to develop and pitch a startup. The program covered topics such as MVP development, marketing analytics, AI tools, business modeling, and entrepreneurial mindset, complemented by industry speakers and a visit to Impulse Space’s headquarters in Los Angeles.
​
Working in a cross-functional team, I helped create Elderlink, a mobile app designed to reduce loneliness among elderly individuals by strengthening connections with family members. Under intense time constraints, we rapidly iterated on the product based on continuous feedback and refined our value proposition and pitch. I specifically helped with the user-problem definition, market research, revenue forecast, and pitch development. Our team ultimately placed 2nd overall in the final investment pitch competition.
Main skills developed: Cross-functional teamwork, Leadership, Communication, Product Development, Marketing Analytics, Business Model Canvas, AI-tools for business development

Supply Chain Optimization Senior Project
Organismo de Nutricion Infantil (ONI)
August 2022 - June 2023
Guadalajara, Mexico
For my senior project (high school), I worked with ONI, a nonprofit combatting infant malnutrition in remote regions of Mexico. From years of volunteering and getting to know the mission of the company, I was motivated to redesign their supply chain operations with hopes of growing their presence and reach in rural Mexico. I evaluated outdated logistics practices and proposed new delivery routes and storage strategies that would ultimately double ONI's outreach to infants across regions of Nayarit and northern Jalisco without any major investments. I travelled with ONI multiple times before and identified areas of growth and immense potential, teaching me how a good strategy and innovation can make a difference and have real-world impact.
Main skills developed: Process Optimization, Project Management
