About

I am a dynamic sustainability and communication professional with a background in cultural anthropology and marketing/communication. I help organizations tell compelling stories, create meaningful content, and build partnerships that advance social and environmental goals. Based in Quito, I collaborate across Europe and Latin America with NGOs, governments, and the private sector to drive responsible consumption, forest conservation, and indigenous rights.

My work spans storytelling, content creation, marketing/communications, project management, and stakeholder engagement for initiatives related to sustainability, nature-based solutions, forests, indigenous peoples, and responsible products. I thrive in diverse settings and enjoy translating complex ideas into accessible messages that mobilize action for people and the planet.
