Witnessing the increasing gravity of climate change and its implications for humanity has made me want to determine how I can contribute to sustainability and climate solutions with like-minded people, and this has been the main focus of my career break.I've acquired baseline knowledge and expertise in sustainability and climate by completing: • The Cornell University Sustainable Business Certificate Program, which provided me with a foundational understanding of sustainability in businesses and skills to analyze sustainability in organizations, apply sustainability to strategy, implement sustainability, and manage stakeholders strategically. • The Terra.do Climate Change Learning for Action fellowship program, to gain an understanding of climate science and climate solutions. • The Green Project Management GPM-b credential, that encompasses the application of sustainability to project management. • The Sustainability Excellence Associate (SEA) certificate from ISSP.In December 2023, I completed the One Point Five Academy Sustainability Consulting Accelerator which focused on how to deliver sustainability expertise to and within organizations.
