What I'm looking for

I'm relocating to Germany and seeking a full-time sustainability role where I can extend my experience in ESG, supply-chain traceability, and sustainable business models.

As a Freelance Sustainability Consultant, I conduct strategic and financial assessments of long-term traceability and transparency risks in the garments and textile industry. I also implement ESG reporting matrices, including Higg Index and SASB, across Tier 1 and 2 facilities through IT enablement.

With Hecho por Nosotros (HxN), I partnered on advocacy for an inclusive, traceable camelid-fiber garment value chain and proposed e-certification opportunities to recognize artisans' handicraft. My work has also included climate risk assessment for Invest India and ecommerce, risk assessment, and business intelligence consulting at Cognizant Business Consulting & Nike Digital Commerce.
