What I'm looking for

Seeking a role that aligns with my passion for sustainability and social impact, offering opportunities for strategic leadership and innovation in a global context.

I am a dedicated and multifaceted professional with a strong background in various fields, including pharmaceutical sciences, anthropology, and sustainable development. My journey began in the pharmaceutical industry, where I worked as a pharmacist and later transitioned into roles that align with my passion for sustainability and social impact.

In 2020, I co-founded Peggada, an online platform that bridges the gap between sustainable businesses and conscious consumers. This platform has earned significant recognition, including being a finalist in the Women4Climate 2020 Program and winning the Go Green, Go Social Prize in 2021. Additionally, I am the co-founder of Nomads & Pirates, a community focused on connecting digital nomads and remote professionals who are passionate about sustainability and social impact.

My professional experience also includes roles such as General Manager for Remote Year in Lisbon, where I managed operations and ensured exceptional client feedback. I have also worked as an IT Consultant for the World Food Programme, where I assisted in implementing a knowledge management framework and produced technical guidance to support corporate products.
