About

I’m a purpose-driven leader with over 15 years of global experience advancing social impact, sustainability, clean energy, and inclusive development. My work has taken me across Asia, Africa, and now Canada—advising governments, building coalitions, and shaping policies that center people, planet, and equity. From managing a $200M climate investment strategy at the World Bank to co-creating grassroots energy access programs in Bangladesh, I’ve led work that spans net-zero policy, gender equity, and impact investing. I thrive in cross-sector spaces—collaborating with ministries, multilateral institutions, nonprofits, and private sector allies to drive sustainable systems change. What energizes me most? ✔ Facilitating partnerships that move ideas into action ✔ Designing impact frameworks that tell real stories ✔ Advocating for policies that prioritize people and the planet ✔ Building joyful, collaborative teams Recently, I enhanced my expertise by completing certifications in ESG and Climate Change and Climate Finance. These courses deepened my understanding of climate-related risks and opportunities, ESG investment strategies, Climate Finance Strategies and the importance of climate
