Melisa Ciprian Jimenez

I hold a BSc. in Food Science and Technology with a Specialization in Food Hygiene and Safety. I have experience in quality control and production in the food industry. I worked as a Quality Analyst in sampling and packing of asparagus at Danper S.A.S. (Peru), and later as Quality and Food Safety Coordinator at Bayanas Gold S.A.S. (Dominican Republic), coordinating pineapple export processes under Global GAP standards. Most recently, I was Production and Quality Supervisor at Juan Barceló S.A.S. (Dominican Republic), overseeing citrus export operations. I am currently focused on preparing to become a consultant in food safety and sustainable food systems.
