I help articulate the responsibility of the private sector by using evidence-based data that shows the impact and progress of businesses to meet the SDGs. Engaging with the world's biggest companies, I have accumulated valuable insights on what is holding companies back from making progress. Using several tools, including advocacy and metric setting, I work with multi-stakeholders to influence companies to improve their performance.
I've supported youth across the world on policy advocacy, capacity-building, knowledge-sharing, and initiative-building. I have empowered them through fundraising, partnerships, relationship building, and providing spaces for them to share their work and elevate their impact. I've represented their voices and helped develop their calls to action to high-level representatives.
My research background focused on quantifying the environmental impacts of diets and agri-food commodities.
