Making weather science meaningful

​

I am a double-certified AMS bilingual meteorologist, digital media professional, and international weather communications consultant with nearly two decades of experience connecting science, media, and the public.

​

Throughout my career, I have worked at the intersection of meteorology, emergency management, broadcasting, and digital innovation. From serving as a Deputy State Meteorologist in Florida's emergency management sector to delivering weather forecasts on television and radio across the United States and Latin America, my mission has remained the same: to make complex weather information accessible, actionable, and relevant to people's lives.

​

My professional journey has also taken me behind the scenes of weather technology and innovation. At The Weather Company (formerly Weather Services International), I helped develop the TruVu Max ecosystem, gaining valuable experience with the tools and technologies that help meteorologists communicate weather information effectively.

​

Today, I work as a bilingual Digital Meteorologist at Weather & Radar, where I help shape the day's weather narrative, transform complex meteorological information into engaging digital content, and develop storytelling strategies for audiences across social media platforms.

​

I also serve as a freelance international meteorology consultant with ClimaData, specializing in tropical weather forecasting in South Florida and the British Virgin Islands. My consulting experience extends beyond forecasting to include organizing and facilitating conferences that strengthen collaboration among meteorological agencies, emergency management organizations, the media, and the public.

​

I am a contributor and writer for Yale Climate Connections en español and in English, as well as a contributor to the local National Public Radio stations in Florida, as part of the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network.

Bridging science, communication, and leadership

​

I believe that effective weather communication is just as important as accurate forecasting. Weather doesn't operate on a 9-to-5 schedule, and neither should our commitment to keeping communities informed and prepared.

​

As digital platforms continue to transform how people consume information, I am passionate about finding new ways to tell compelling weather stories, communicate risk, and help audiences make informed decisions before, during, and after significant weather events.

​

I am proud to contribute to the broader meteorological community through my involvement with the American Meteorological Society (AMS), including service on its Broadcast Board and Early Career Professionals Board. I am also a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador, supporting efforts to strengthen weather awareness, preparedness, and resilience.

​

As a bilingual communicator, I also enjoy scientific translation, helping make technical information understandable and accessible across languages and cultures.

​

My philosophy

​

Weather forecasting is about more than predicting what happens in the atmosphere. It's about helping people understand what those predictions mean for them.

​

Whether I'm developing digital content, forecasting tropical weather, advising organizations, speaking at conferences, or translating scientific information, my goal is to bridge the gap between meteorological science and the people who depend on it.
