GCF Task Force Operations Manager, Environment and Society Program

Brief Biography

With over two decades of professional experience, I specialize in business operations and planning. Currently managing operations for the Governors’ Climate & Forests Task Force Global Secretariat, I contribute to the empowerment of Governors and civil servants in 11 countries leading the forest and climate agenda.

My role strengthens the network’s visibility on the global stage by leading the development and implementation of operational systems and guidelines to streamline work across the network, leading the planning and execution of high-profile multinational meetings, conferences and events, and strengthening presence in global forums such as those led by UNFCCC and UNBCC, interfacing with government, academia, the private sector, non-profit organizations, and the press.

I am a native Spanish speaker, fluent in English, and have knowledge of Portuguese and American Sign Language.
