About me
I am dedicating my work to helping companies embrace sustainability, with a strong focus on circular economy solutions and GHG footprint reduction strategies.
With 15+ years of experience in strategy consulting, technology product management and helping businesses across cultures and industries, I’ve seen what makes companies thrive. Now, I'm using that knowledge to help businesses put sustainability at the heart of what they do - creating real impact for people, the planet, and yes, still making a solid profit.
If you're serious about sustainability and want a partner who's all in, let’s talk. I’d love to help you turn big ideas into bold, measurable action. ... Show more
