From Rainforest Roots to Boardroom Strategy
I believe that sustainability is more than just a well-articulated strategy. It’s a responsibility — to people, to the planet, and to the long-term resilience of business.
My own commitment began in the Costa Rican rainforest, where I saw first-hand how human activity was destroying ecosystems. That experience sparked a lifelong drive to lead change — grounded in science, empathy, and bold action.
For over a decade, I’ve helped organisations embed environmental and social considerations into their core strategy and decision-making.
My work lives at the intersection of regulation, resilience, and purpose-led innovation — transforming sustainability ambitions into tangible, lasting impact.
