NURIA ROBLES

I am a Mechanical Engineer and Master in Quality, Environment and Occupational Risk Prevention, worked as an engineer for more than 13 years until I fell in love with the world of FabLabs. Now, I am the manager at Fab Lab León, where I have been employed since 2012.

I am happy to be an instructor for the FabAcademy and Fabricademy programs and mentor for the Educational Programs for children, youth and adults at FabLab León. These programs introduce Digital Fabrication and the Maker philosophy into the daily lives of young people, and are focused on finding solutions to everyday problems and training them through the creation of their future portfolio.

In this context, with women and girls as protagonists, in 2015 I launched PODEROSAS, a program where girls from 6 years old approach technology combined with manual tasks to create original projects.
