It took 70 years to grow to 2400 women in YPO. Since the launch of the Athena Program four years ago, we have added +2000 more. The Athena Program was developed by a YPO Board Sponsored Working Group to accelerate gender diversity in the world’s largest leadership community of chief executives, and I'm responsible for its implementation in the seven regions in the American continent.In this role, I collaborate closely with my team and with CEOs from across the Americas to design and develop member-led initiatives that aim to engage and support women chief executives in their journey to join their extraordinary peers to drive positive change and make a meaningful impact in the world.​I also manage the Awani Program, which aims to increase the membership and engagement of Black leaders in the Americas. The way I support the implementation of these programs is by managing, analyzing and interpreting data, co-designing a multi-platform communication agenda, influencing and facilitating member-to-member connections and member-to-member mentoring, creating tools and resources for our Champions, and planning and running a variety of projects that have the objective of having a more equal and inclusive organization.

As a full time Master in Science student, I examined the various components of the climate crisis as well as the possible solutions that are available to confront it. I focused on the root causes of the climate emergency, which stem from the systems of inequality that govern our societies. I dove deep into issues like social equity and equality, sustainable development goals, ESG (environmental, social, governance) targets, environmental and social indicators, sustainable institutions and organizations, human rights and public policy.On the course of these 2 years, I refined my research skills, understood how to design and apply methodologies and research frameworks, learned how to do bibliometric studies, apply surveys and questionnaires across geographies, and manage, systematize and interpret large quantities of data to find insights, conclusions and ask deeper questions. I designed and applied various methodologies and tools to measure, study and analyze the gender gap in scientific leadership, and I specialized in social studies, gender studies, gender and sustainability, and gender perspective. My thesis revolved around SDG number 5: Gender Equality.

Following up on the success on my bachelor’s thesis results, I founded Monda Tecnologia, an entrepreneurial project that produced sustainable packaging made from a biodegradable plastic that we invented. I was responsible for identifying, preparing, submitting and following up on grant applications and proposals from private and public institutions to fund the startup and later the scale up. I designed, presented and submitted reports, newsletters, infographics and success stories about impacts and results to the foundations and institutions that awarded us the grants. I also got to set and accomplish social and sustainability targets to meet Grants' Requirements and Funding Strategy Goals. For example: we managed to reutilize +70% of the water used in the fabrication process, we optimized energy use and we restricted the use of petroleum based plastics. Lastly, I managed the budget and led the innovation processes, as well as the Research and Development Strategy, to obtain new products and materials based on grants' requirements, clients' needs and market research.The startup received numerous national and international awards, including Top 15% of the Buckminster Fuller Challenge Selection (2017), Finalist in the Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative (2017), Woman Entrepreneur of the Year by PwC (2016), Top 10 Finalist at the Clean Tech Challenge Mexico (2016), 5th place as Best Innovative Enterprise Project at the X Santander Prize (2015), First place at the Reto VIA Emprende Contest (2015).
