I am a passionate young Peruvian professional in sustainability, with experience leading impactful projects in the industrial, construction, and mining sectors. Nowadays, my work focuses on implementing zero-waste plans in mining companies, built around three key pillars: research, fostering a circular culture, and effective communication.

I also have solid experience developing sustainable procurement strategies, guiding suppliers to enhance their ESG performance, and designing roadmaps aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Beyond my corporate experience, I am deeply committed to community-based initiatives that raise environmental awareness, empower vulnerable groups, and promote climate action through volunteer work.

My vision is to continue driving innovative solutions that accelerate the transition toward a circular and low-carbon economy, fostering meaningful collaboration between businesses, governments, and communities to create lasting impact.

I strongly believe in the power of collaboration and knowledge-sharing to accelerate the transition toward a circular and low-carbon economy. This opportunity would allow me to expand my impact by connecting with like-minded professionals, exchanging practical insights, and co-creating scalable solutions. I am particularly interested in contributing to discussions and initiatives on the Circular Economy, as I believe that redesigning products, processes, and systems is essential to achieving long-term sustainability.

Being part of this global network would also enable me to bring innovative ideas and best practices back to my region, amplifying opportunities for local businesses and communities to transition toward more sustainable models. I see Sustainability Global as a unique space to learn, collaborate, and inspire meaningful action, while strengthening my role as a changemaker who bridges local efforts with global movements to build a more resilient, inclusive, and sustainable world.
