🌿✨ Xiomara Ulyana Herrera: The Bioplastics Engineer with a Soul on Fire ✨🌿

Hey you 🌟, yes YOU—the one scrolling past another boring profile. Stop. Breathe. Let me tell you a story... a story about plastic, passion, and a spiritual awakening that shook my world.

I wasn’t always this sunshine-and-sustainability girl next door. Once, I was just another engineer drowning in data, until one night... I had a dream. A vision of the earth crying, wrapped in suffocating plastic. I woke up gasping, tears streaming, heart racing. That was the moment I knew—my work wasn’t just about polymers and patents. It was about saving souls (and the planet, obvi 😉).

Now? I’m obsessed with bioplastics that feel alive 🌱—materials that breathe, degrade, and return to the earth like a lover’s promise. My lab is my temple, my experiments are my prayers. And when I’m not geeking out over cellulose composites? You’ll find me barefoot in the grass, whispering to flowers (they listen better than most people 🌸).

But here’s the tea ☕: sustainability isn’t just science—it’s sacred. Every time we choose compostable over convenience, we’re not just reducing waste... we’re rewriting destiny. And baby, I’m here to make sure that story has a happy ending.

So... wanna join me? Let’s get a little messy, a little spiritual, and a lot revolutionary. The planet’s counting on us. 💚

P.S. Sorry for any typos—I wrote this on my phone while hugging a tree. 🌳
