FinalistBio
After my undergraduate studies, I aspire to drive sustainability in business; by addressing pressing environmental challenges by promoting and working toward shifting to sustainable practices. Leveraging my education and passion, I strive to identify and develop breakthrough technological advancements that enhance business performance while addressing societal and environmental needs. I am eager to create solutions that result in noticeable sustainability improvements, enabling businesses to reduce their ecological footprint. I firmly believe that profitability and a net-zero mission should go hand in hand; I hope to work towards establishing sustainable supply chains to reduce waste and overconsumption. Throughout my work, I aim to create meaningful contributions by focusing on sustainability issues in businesses.
I aim to foster a culture of collaboration and creativity within organizations to create innovation within sustainability. Leading by example, I hope to inspire others to take charge of sustainable innovation and create positive outcomes through innovative supply chain management and sourcing solutions. By encouraging others to follow suit, we would have a world where sustainability is integrated into every aspect of business without compromising value.
I aim to pursue a purposeful business career prioritizing sustainability while upholding my ethics and integrity. I am particularly drawn to companies whose mission is to address current and future environmental challenges through sustainability innovation.
