Planetary healing meets KPI's
Sustainability work rooted in science, not spin. I help companies build real resilience in a world where business leadership on climate isn't optional—it's essential.
Developed comprehensive Science-Based Target roadmap (SBTi) for rapidly scaling DTC skincare brand, establishing measurable pathways to reduce carbon emissions by 4.2% annually while optimizing operational efficiencies across manufacturing and supply chain
Planet A
Co-Chair for Planet A, a movement of continued collaboration and action among the brands. We pushed for emissions transparency and environmental advocacy in the beauty industry. Partner brands include Youth to the People, Versed, Cocokind etc.
MUSA (Modern Utopian Society of Adventurers)
Sustainability consulting + impact storytelling (photos and journal — to be published soon!) for radical, regenerative and design-forward MUSA. This project is truly amazing.
“The belief that we must return to basics and look to our surroundings to achieve inspired design remains at the heart of the utopian vision for a better world. Defining a new era in tropical modernist living with a signature approach to minimalism that celebrates beautiful simplicity, MUSA was conceptualized as an interpretive setting to an endless scope of possibilities for new and exciting experiences - experiences we are yet to have, flavours we are yet to taste, and music we've never heard, with people we are yet to meet.”
