My name is Angela Insignares Schifino and I was born and raised in Barranquilla, Colombia. I am a candidate for the Master in Circular Economy: Speciality in Minerals and Construction Products in the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. I have a bachelor degree in Architecture and Civil Engineering from Universidad del Norte (Barranquilla, Colombia) and University of South Florida (Tampa, Florida, USA).
I have experience working in the construction sector as an estimator and project manager for residential, comercial, institutional, road, and mechanical activities.
I started learning about Circular Economy through several courses from my undergrad and a Coursera degree. When I decided to join this master, I was inclined for the Minerals and Construction Products speciality because this sector is one of the main industries that most impact negatively the environment in the world. The cement and concrete industry has room for technological growth that can impact every country. I plan for my future to be able to educate and investigate about this subject in order to improve the human quality of life, economy and environment.
