Creative consultant and curator working at the intersection of art, sustainable fashion, and global advocacy. With 10 years of experience across the UN, international NGOs, and cultural institutions, I design global campaigns and exhibitions that transform narratives and mobilize collective action for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Currently serving as Creative Communications Lead at the UN SDG Action Campaign under UNDP, I lead branding and creative direction for flagship initiatives such as the UN SDG Action Awards and 3 global advocacy campaigns including Unite to Act—mobilizing 200M+ people worldwide through immersive storytelling, digital activations, and high-visibility exhibitions. My curatorial projects, including Hope in Action and Parallel Realities, have been showcased at major venues such as the UN General Assembly Hall in New York and Triennale Milano, amplifying youth and underrepresented voices through SDG-aligned, socially engaged art.
Beyond the UN, I have built a decade of experience across sustainable fashion, contemporary art, and brand storytelling, leading campaigns and exhibitions that blend culture with social impact. From directing sustainable fashion campaigns at Redress, to curating 15+ art exhibitions –including showcases of the iconic Knotted Gun sculptures – I have steadily positioned creativity as a catalyst for dialogue, advocacy, and systemic change.
My work has been recognized globally, including being named a Cannes Lions 30 Under 30 Creative (2024), a McKinsey Next Generation Women Leader (2021), and one of NET-A-PORTER’s Incredible Girls of the Future (2019). I have also won first prizes in global brand competitions with Bulgari (Luxury Brand Management) and Balmain (Digital Strategy), as well as top honors with FedEx (International Trade Challenge).
Originally from the Philippines and having lived in Hong Kong and now Germany, my cross-cultural background deeply informs my perspective and reinforces my commitment to leaving no one behind—whether shaping advocacy campaigns, directing sustainable fashion initiatives, or curating art that bridges communities and inspires global action.
“Alone,
creativity is vision;
together, it’s transformation.”
Co-creation turns creativity into collective power. It transforms ideas into stories, and stories into movements that inspire real change. My work lives in this space — where collaboration amplifies creativity to shape the futures we imagine together.
