Cintya’s professional experience began with research in 2013 related to products that can solve environmental problems in aquaculture, specifically in salmon farms, while working on her undergraduate thesis in Industrial Design.

She also became part of YLAI (Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative), eventually serving as Chair of the Educations and Events Committee from the YLAI Alumni Advisory Board.
