Available to hire
I’m Yana Indy Greenman, a PhD student in Economics with more than 15 years of experience leading large teams and delivering complex projects. I specialize in strategy, policy, and process improvement in high-stakes environments, and I love turning data into actionable decisions that drive real impact.
Beyond academia, I’ve guided international infrastructure and energy initiatives, negotiated across borders, and mentored cross-functional teams to achieve measurable results. I thrive at the intersection of research, policy, and practical execution, and I’m always looking for ways to accelerate impact through collaboration, governance, and a hands-on problem-solving mindset.
