Its mission is to move beyond ambition by turning purpose into bold, scalable action that safeguards ecosystems and empowers communities.

She has over eight years of experience designing, leading, and implementing regenerative and social impact initiatives at regional and global levels, including her role as Regional Sustainability Manager for AB InBev (Grupo Modelo, Bavaria, Backus) and the 100+ Accelerator. Today, as Co-Founder and CFO/CTO of Myzelio, she leads innovation, finance, and technology to drive systemic change.
