Professional Experience
I have solid international experience in a multinational company in the telecoms and technology sector, in Business Development, Institutional Relations, Project Management, as well as in Negotiation and Positioning.
My professional career has been mainly developed in the area of Corporate Strategy, in multicultural environments.
I have worked to develop a base of strategic partners in countries where, despite having interests, the company had no operations. This mainly involved institutional relations at the highest level, to pave the way for new business opportunities through major commercial agreements. I acted as an ambassador to build synergies with the business, which led to the development of large-scale projects.
My most recent stage focused on the design and implementation of the Sustainability Strategy to ensure the integration of environmental and social aspects into business decisions, as well as translating this strategy into concrete action plans.
Sustainable investment is a growing value, and properly understanding the most valued Environmental and Social aspects, how to communicate them and ensure alignment with the core business is a major challenge. As Head of Investor and Analyst Relations for sustainability matters, I succeeded in positioning the company among the sector leaders.

Committed to building a better and greener future to thrive as a society.
