I have led production and resource-efficiency improvements in manufacturing, consulted on EPDs and eco-passports, and conducted LCA research and teaching on circular economy practices. I combine technical LCA skills (SimaPro, R), cross-functional collaboration, and data-driven sustainability analysis to embed measurable environmental outcomes into business decisions.
