What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level role where I can apply ESG, sustainability reporting, and environmental research—working with cross-functional teams on climate action. I want hands-on project ownership, data-driven impact, and clear learning and growth.

I’m an Environmental Research Officer and early-career sustainability professional focused on practical climate action, ESG support, and evidence-based environmental communication. I’m currently pursuing a Master of Engineering in International Environmental Engineering at Hochschule Weihenstephan-Triesdorf.

In sustainability and climate-impact roles, I supported ESG integration, carbon footprint assessments, and sustainability reporting aligned with GRI and the UN SDGs. I also contributed to data collection and analysis for sustainability and impact-investing research, helping shape policy-aligned outputs and data visualizations.

At Earthocity, I lead environmental awareness and stakeholder engagement initiatives, manage partnership and outreach activities supporting climate action and sustainability goals, and previously coordinated international research collaborations in environmental science and disaster risk management. I’ve supervised multidisciplinary research teams and contributed to scientific publications and outreach.

I’m energized by circular and resource-focused innovation—like developing repurposed waste footwear into sustainable soles and researching algae-based bioplastic formulations. I’ve been recognized as a finalist for the Plastics Innovation Challenge and the Sustainable Climate Action Challenge, and I bring that momentum into every sustainability project and campaign I support.
