Collective & Strategic Impact
Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to a wide range of collective impact initiatives, with a particular focus on socio-environmental issues, sustainability, and institutional strengthening. My Portfolio of activities provides further details on selected projects and initiatives developed over the years.
These initiatives are often closely connected to my professional work in institutional relations, government affairs, ESG, and CSR, enabling me to contribute both to public policy development and to projects generating tangible impact in Brazil and internationally.
From founding and leading organizations such as Nature Invest and Vulica Brasil, to my strategic engagement with ABRIG and IRELGOV, as well as my participation in international forums such as the Governors’ Climate and Forest Task Force (GCF), the Climate Markets and Investment Association (CMIA), and United Nations initiatives, I have sought to combine technical expertise, policy engagement, and civic commitment to advance innovative solutions in areas such as environmental conservation, ecosystem restoration, democracy, and sustainable development.
