I help companies that care about business growth through a tangible and measurable social and environmental impact strategy. With the purpose of develop, test and then implement high social and environmental impact strategies useful for business growth.

Environmental Economic Valuation and Sustainability: I developed my skills in environmental economic valuation, conducting lifecycle assessments, CO2 equivalencies calculations, and impact assessments through my academic studies and professional experiences. These have equipped me with an integral understanding of how businesses can align their strategies with sustainable practices. My commitment to circular economy has been further demonstrated through my engagement with entrepreneurial initiatives such as the Almacube Startup Incubator. Where I worked on the Intheloop project in the circular economy and sustainability category, being selected among the best projects for the sustainability and circular economy category. Finally, I two had internships in Netherlands and Italy in ESG, sustainability training programs and sustainable business development.  

Project Management and Digital Transformation: I started as an intern in Coca-Cola Company, I served as a Scrum Master for Marketing Experiences and Digital Assets, giving me the initial technical skills and deepening my understanding of technology-business integration. At Stateside, I continued this path, contributing to several SaaS developments working alongside developers, designers and clients to offer digital scalable solutions. Finally, I gained extensive expertise in project management and digital transformation by working as a Project Management consultant in Italy, where I executed software development projects under Agile methodologies. 

My academic studies are a Master's degree in Resource Economics and Sustainable Development from the Università di Bologna, and a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Costa Rica.
