ABOUT ME

FOTO PERFIL ACADEMICO.png

Hello! ✨ My name is Liliana Valverde-Caballero, and I am a Peruvian urban architect and content creator passionate about research in 🚶‍♂️ Sustainable Transport, 🏙️ Urban-Rural Planning, and 🤝 Citizen Participation, key aspects for improving our cities. Throughout my career, I have worked in territorial analysis and urban mobility, participating in projects related to land-use planning, tactical urbanism, and sustainable mobility in collaboration with public and private institutions.

As the co-founder and CEO of 🚀 Pulsessence Travelers, I lead a company specialized in logistics and advisory services for academic travel, promoting learning, research, and knowledge dissemination. 

In parallel, I develop 🎨 creative content and cultural dissemination projects through ✨ Esencia de Iris, a space where I blend digital art, illustration, and audiovisual storytelling inspired by Quechua culture.

I have expertise in 🗺️ GIS (ArcGIS/QGIS) and 🎬 Adobe Suite, integrating research with visual communication to create an impact on urbanism and sustainable mobility in Peru and Latin America.
