    • Mexican Ambassador to China
      • Jun 2007 - Jun 2013

      As the longest-serving Mexican Ambassador to China, I led extensive bilateral relations, managing complex trade negotiations, political dialogues, and multilateral organizations. I navigated through the H1N1 flu epidemic, managing frayed relations and media coverage, and led successful evacuation operations for quarantined Mexican nationals. Additionally, I established key relationships with CEOs from major Chinese corporations such as ICBC Bank, Broad Industries, Geely, Yinchuan Group, BYD, Chang An Motors, and HNA Group, and coordinated their business delegations to Mexico, strengthening our mutual business ties.
