Participates in 1 Session

Doctoral candidate with a dozen years of professional/industry experience at the field, management and policy level. My research interests are around private equity and venture capital, their sustainability approaches and contributions to sustainable development.

My start-up and consulting work involves collaboration with private equity and asset management firms, corporations, blended finance partnerships with donor governments and philanthropic foundations and reporting on distinctive catalytic financial mechanisms.

I've also worked extensively on technical assistance, advisory and consulting initiatives to assist companies in advancing their environmental, social and governance (ESG), impact measurement and gender lens investing capacities, through strategies, reporting, training, incentive grants and technology solutions.

My career passion lies in the intersection of investment, business ethics and economic development.
