02 / Services
Talks, classes, advisory and training in STEAM and maker innovation and design methodologies.
Talks and keynotes
Talks on maker culture in Chile, on how education and technology come together through design, and on artificial intelligence applied to creating maker projects. For conferences, schools, universities and teams.
Teaching in higher education
Classes and workshops on prototyping, digital fabrication, innovation and design methodologies at universities and institutes, from a single guest session to a full course.
STEAM and maker innovation consulting
I help schools and foundations plan and make the most of a maker lab: assessment, teaching use of the space, technology selection, safety protocols and a usage plan.
Teacher training
Hands-on training in digital fabrication, educational robotics, programming and virtual reality, with in-person sessions and logbooks, so the teaching team can use the lab on its own.
Agile and design methodologies
Workshops and facilitation in design thinking, co-design and agile methods, for teams that need to go from an idea to a prototype, and from there to a project that moves forward in cycles.
Educational programs and kits
Courses, workshops and educational kits designed with design thinking, with prototypes made with 3D printing, laser cutting and electronics, ready for the classroom.
Service design
Experience mapping, proposal architecture and management models. I turn complex processes into services an institution can actually run.
Web apps and platforms
Digital tools built from a concrete problem: mental health support, training, household chores or finding a graduate program. Ten projects built with AI, from prototype to something used every day.
Editorial and information design
Publications, guides, instruction booklets and infographics that make technical content readable. From a kit manual to a printed national health plan.
Photography
Documenting projects, processes and activities, for reports, press and portfolios. I have photographed for ECLAC and the Pan American Health Organization.
