Sustainability • Community Building •
Stakeholder Engagement • Communication
I'm a sustainability consultant with a background in communications, environmental policy, corporate social responsibility and education.
After more than 15 years of experience in the private and non-profit sectors, I now work as a consultant for impact-driven organizations, supporting them in the design and implementation of strategies to become more resilient to tackle climate change and other environmental and social challenges.
I help my clients understand their markets and stakeholders, connect them to interesting people and resources, and support them in their business and communications strategies. I love to co-create with multidisciplinary teams.

“When I was seven years old in my hometown of Porto Alegre, in the south of Brazil, I worried about the hole in the ozone layer and the deforestation of the Brazilian Atlantic forest.
As an adult, I’ve experienced different and complementary paths in work and study. Life makes twists and turns, and now I’m back to the concerns of my seven-year-old self, with a diverse background - and isn’t that exactly what sustainability is about?"
