I'm a sustainability and corporate responsibility expert with 12+ years leading impact-driven initiatives focused on people and planet. My leadership philosophy is rooted in empathy: understanding others' perspectives, communicating in ways that resonate, and building consensus and collaboration toward a shared vision.

For 6 years, I worked with the UN Global Compact—the world's largest corporate sustainability initiative—where I led strategic partnerships and launched their flagship campaign, engaging 1,800+ companies globally on climate, water, labor rights, and gender equality.

I also served on the NYC Fair Trade Coalition board and helped open NYC's first Sustainable Fashion Community Center. Prior, I worked in academia and diplomacy, and oversaw projects in Afghanistan in collaboration with the U.S. State Department.

I hold an MA in policy and public health from Boston University.

My multicultural background as a half-Swedish, half-Venezuelan, first-generation American uniquely positions me to get along with people from all walks of life and build bridges.

I'm in a career pivot, seeking to use my skills in stakeholder engagement, persuasive storytelling, and project management to galvanize collective action toward mitigating the risks of AI. I'm currently developing a policy brief on incentives to reduce data centers' energy and water impacts, but I'm also interested in AI's societal impacts, believing that both must be addressed in tandem.

If this resonates, I'd love to connect!
