Sustainability Specialist | Global Consultant | Project Leader

Sustainability Specialist with 14 years of international experience spanning consulting, stakeholder engagement, project management, sustainability education, marketing communications, and carbon markets. I have managed and supported the delivery of close to 200 sustainability projects across public and private sectors worldwide, driving measurable outcomes in carbon reduction, ESG performance, and organizational resilience.

Recognized as data-driven, curious, and solution-focused, I bring a proven ability to translate complex sustainability challenges into actionable strategies. My strength lies in building trusted relationships across diverse cultural and organizational contexts, fostering collaboration, and empowering teams to deliver meaningful impact.

Myers-Briggs Personality: Protagonist (ENFJ-A) — a servant leader energized by inspiring others, mobilizing collective action, and advancing bold climate solutions.

In May 2013, I presented research on plastic pollution to the Mississauga Environmental Advisory Committee. The urgency of my message resonated so strongly that the Mayor forwarded my work to the Prime Minister of Canada, the Premier of Ontario, and other key Ministers. This contribution informed municipal waste management discussions and ultimately led to Mississauga updating residential waste and recycling bins with lids—helping to reduce plastic leakage into local watersheds and, ultimately, the ocean. Witnessing how evidence-based advocacy could influence public policy was a defining moment that ignited my passion for driving sustainability at scale.

Following my MSc. in Environmental Management in UK, I carried this same sense of purpose into international work. At GreenTech Consultants, one of Sri Lanka’s leading project development firms, I served as Project Coordinator for the Biodiversity Baseline Survey of the Kala River Basin, a project of national importance. Our findings shed light on pressing sustainability challenges, including deforestation and the socioeconomic pressures facing rural communities. For my leadership and contributions, I received formal recognition from the Managing Director, affirming the lasting value of my work.

These experiences cemented my belief that sustainability is not only about data and frameworks, but also about mobilizing communities, shaping policy, and creating meaningful change for both people and ecosystems.
