How to engage people in the shift to a fairer and cleaner economy ?
Decarbonization will only work if it works for people. I work with leaders in governments, business, media and civil society in the transition to a zero-emission society with a focus on renewable energy and electric mobility. I engage in policy analysis but most of all, I work as a "translator", connector and storyteller.
I speak regularly with journalists from the Americas and Europe to discuss eMobility and climate action in Latin America.
I love podcasts. I have recorded episodes with The Economist podcast (Babbage) Foreign Policy, Fully charged including RAI TV (Italy), National Geographic (Mars series), CNN en Español, CNN Chile and written press. Visit the media section

I've convened various initiatives in Latin America
Highlights
I have founded and co-founded several initiatives in Latin America. For example co-founded Costa Rica Limpia and the Association of Electric Mobility in Costa Rica. I have helped design with other colleagues LEDS LAC and Nivela. Now we are partnering with Monteverde to launch a Ruta Electrica for eco-tourism in Costa Rica. With Dvrgente we launched a the first Spanish language podcast on decarbonization.
I work as adviser in Latin America and Europe
I am a free lance. I split my time between Costa Rica and Amsterdam working on a variety of projects. I work with teams designing and executing innovative initiatives. I have been adviser to the National Decarbonization Plan 2050 in Costa Rica, IRENA, European Climate Foundation, UN Environment and several e-mobility strategies.
