I am currently a Legal Intern at Orbex.
Previous experience
I serve as an ambassador for a Peruvian NGO, working with young people in northern Peru. We run four projects aimed at improving access to resources following the country’s past economic crisis. I am particularly committed to the environmental project, where I liaise with clients, run stands, and secure sponsorship to raise awareness.
Why I want to become a Professional Ambassador
I am passionate about the future of geography and eager to share this enthusiasm with others. Having worked on developing the world’s most sustainable rocket, I bring fresh ideas and valuable insights. Additionally, my experience presenting research at the UN London Sustainability Conference highlights my skills in public speaking and advocacy.
