Environmental engineer specializing in climate policy analysis, environmental justice research, and evidence-based sustainable finance solutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m an environmental engineer focused on turning rigorous evidence into practical climate and nature finance insights, with a strong equity lens. My work spans climate governance and policy brief development for international audiences, plus research using systematic review methods to support urban green infrastructure decisions.
I’ve built multidisciplinary experience across Germany, Israel, and Mexico—synthesizing technical findings for diverse stakeholders and producing executive-ready outputs. I also design circular economy solutions, including baseline waste recovery work and a fellowship-backed platform concept using geointelligence to map waste recovery networks.
