After earning my engineering degree, I embarked on a two-year professional journey in  technical design offices and construction companies. My PhD marked an exceptional phase  where I specialized in emerging technological and managerial trends to address the AEC  industry's challenges and weaknesses. My research has focused on the synergy between  BIM and Lean Construction, aiming to enhance construction management, quality, and  sustainability.  This work has led to the publication of 16 indexed contributions, including one Q1 and four  Q2 articles, with three additional Q1 papers accepted for publication. I've had the privilege  of presenting at several prestigious international conferences and will be participating in the  renowned Construction Research Conference of the American Society of Civil Engineers,  the oldest professional organization in the US construction sector.  Throughout my research career, I've established productive collaborations both nationally  and internationally, working with researchers from Africa, the USA, and Asia. Overall, I  have contributed to 40 peer
