Los Angeles, California, United States of America

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

I have a Masters in Development with a thesis on microenterprise development in Indigenous society. I recently completed my certification in Business Sustainability Management from the Cambridge Institute of Sustainability Leadership, where I became much more integrated in the workings of 'Doughnut Economics'. I have worked in the Energy sector for close to two decades, predominantly with oil and gas clients, but more recently with hydroelectricity and solar. My principal focus has been Indigenous engagement in Western Canada, concentrating on economic development in impacted communities. Prior to my work in Western Canada I worked with Mayan communities in Guatemala, managing the UNCTAD program 'EMPRETEC' for entrepreneurs. Next to my family, my greatest passions are writing and soccer.

Mechanical Engineer specialized on Urban Sustainable Technologies by Buenos Aires University. My master thesis mixed anthropology and engineering on an effort to design based on social practices. Right now I am coordinating a citizen-led initiative do develop a youth local manifesto for my hometown, Anadia, in Center Portugal. The answers from an inquiry made to the population reveal that the Doughnut might give the directions to answer the challenges identified.

Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland, Nederland

After having worked for 30 years in and for large and medium-sized companies, both in management and in consultancy, it is time to apply my knowledge and skills for donut economics. I am an experienced marketer, lean six sigma blackbelt, systemic change expert and manager. I have a clear vision of the ingredients needed to get groups 'on' for a different way of thinking and behaviour. and how to embed this into new routines. I was surprised when I discovered that the approach we adopt in our agency is almost 1:1 to the donut economics mindsets. That is why I am changing my own compass and am going to use it for companies and institutions and the city of Rotterdam.
