Empowered Engineering Elegance

Portrait of a Hispanic female engineer, mid-30s, with warm olive skin and expressive dark brown eyes. Her thick, wavy black hair is pulled back into a neat ponytail, revealing a strong jawline and high cheekbones. She wears a crisp white lab coat over a navy blue blouse, with a safety helmet tucked under her arm. Her expression is confident and focused, with a slight smile conveying intelligence and determination. The background shows a blurred industrial setting with blueprints and machinery. Soft, directional lighting from the left creates subtle shadows, emphasizing her facial features. The composition follows the rule of thirds, with her face slightly off-center. Shot with a 85mm lens at f/2.8 for a shallow depth of field. The style blends contemporary realism with a touch of chiaroscuro, highlighting the subject's professionalism and cultural heritage. The overall mood is one of competence and pride in her engineering expertise.
