Sofia pursued her bachelor's degree in Nanotechnology Engineering in Mexico. Driven by her dream to ski on a frozen canal, like in movie scenes, she moved to Ottawa for her PhD in Chemical Engineering. Her current research focuses on developing gas sensors using innovative organic materials. Outside the lab, she enjoys playing in the snow, spending time with friends, and going to the cinema. If you don't find her in the lab, it's probably because she's flying back to the beautiful beaches of Mexico.
