SKILLS
Technical
skills
My PhD project concerns the
theoretical study of liquids which are confined inside nanopores.
Numerical methods and computational techniques like molecular dynamics are used
on a daily basis, where computer programming is essential. The work involves a
high level of numeracy and scientific analysis.
During the time I was
working in the industry, I was also exposed to the use of many different
software packages, most of them for the use and calibration of analysis
instrumentation. This allowed me to feel comfortable in handling both software
and hardware and their installation. In addition I developed a high level of
technical support / customer care.
Organisational
skills
In addition to my postgraduate
studies, which involve both individual and group research, my work experience
provided me with strong organisational skills. I had to deal with a large
number of customers while keeping their profiles updated. I also had to
organise frequent visits to customer sites, which required travelling for long
periods of time and a lot of planning.
Communication
skills
I believe I am a good and
effective communicator. As a scientific research student, it is indispensable
to transmit your new findings to supervisors and other scientists, and I have
done this through a series of talks in my own department and also in foreign
universities. I am also a mathematics teaching assistant for first year
chemistry students at Imperial College London. This involves solving doubts
students may while doing their mathematics laboratory.
During the time I worked in Bran + Luebbe SL, I had to organise and give several training
courses to customer’s employees. In one occasion, the course lasted for 5 days,
and I obtained a very positive feedback from them. An extremely demanding task
was the training provided to customers in the agricultural sector, since their
computer literacy was very limited. Yet I managed to transmit them what was
necessary. At
Gomensoro S.A, my role as a sales specialist
helped me to develop my commercial skills, which I had to use day by day basic.
Computing
skills
Due to the computational
nature of my PhD, I have largely expanded my computer skills during the last
three years, specially in programming. In addition I
completed a 300 hour course in web sites design and a 450 hour course in Visual
Basic, relational databases, SQL and C++
. I have developed my
research’s group web site: http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/bresme.
Languages: My mother tongue
is Spanish and I have basic conversational Italian.
Interests: Electronic music,
computing, travelling, car mechanics.
Sports: Ski, cycling
