Biografía: 

Nieves is the Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder of Monoceros Labs, an Innovation Studio focused on building voice and multimodal apps for assistants like Amazon Alexa in Spanish, working on education, health, and games, and researching on how elderly and kids use voice interfaces. Currently, at Monoceros Labs, we are working on a R&D project to create more natural synthetic voices in Spanish with SOTA algorithms. She is also AWS Certified Alexa Skill Builder and Alexa Champion.

Nieves is part of the Women in Voice leadership team (CDIO) and started the Spanish chapter at Madrid. She aims to create a strong community around voice interfaces and loves sharing her learnings at events (meetups and conferences) and teaching at courses.

Since 2009, Nieves has been researching on Conversational AI (Dialog Systems, Natural Language Processing, and Artificial Intelligence applied to conversational interfaces). She finished her Computer Engineering degree at University of Granada (UGR) with “Mayordomo”, a multimodal domotic butler to manage household virtually. She continued the research evaluating dialogue systems with an MSc and a half-way PhD (unfinished to enter the private sector). From 2013 to 2018, at the R&D department of BEEVA (part of BBVA), she experimented with NLP, voice assistants like Alexa in English, and was Product Manager of an Intelligent Agents platform.
