About Luis Alejandro Lazalde

Enthusiastic, driven, and detail-oriented Chemical Engineer with ~5 years’ experience as a Process and Product Engineer designing over 50 large scale capital projects around the globe. I combine extensive technical and commercial knowledge to work with global customers to find the best solutions. I value others and their input to build the best possible version of something with everyone\'s contribution. I make sure that \"no stone goes unturned,\" and go the extra mile to learn about the context of what it is that I do. As the child of immigrants from the international community of El Paso, Texas, I also value the contributions that a person\'s intersectionality can bring to one\'s work. To this end I also love to travel-having been to 17 countries-and to learn about peoples\' unique experiences in history, culture, and language. In my spare time I enjoy storytelling in multiple media forms, including cinema, television, and others. I also enjoy a good run-but more so the food that comes afterward-and learning about everything in our world! Please message me if you\'d like to learn more!
