I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication for Development at PUCP University. In high school, I was awarded the US Department of State – Access Microscholarship Program to study English and after that, I was selected to participate in the Summer Science and Innovation Camp in UCSD, California. My experience in the social sector includes work on international organizations as an intern at UNESCO Lima for an intersectional project to enhance the value of art and culture of artisans of Ayacucho; USAID under Democracy and Governance Office where I lead the workshop “EITI and SDGs” and trained 50 young leaders in Arequipa as well as the design of communication’s strategy for regional oversight teams against human trafficking in 5 regions of Peru. Currently, I’m the Head of Education in the Global Solidarity area of America Solidaria where we develop projects of teenage entrepreneurship through design thinking for social impact, well-being in quarantine, and international summits like Concausa2030 with a focus on SDG. I’ve been part of some international events such as the Bali Democracy Students Conference in Indonesia where I shared experiences and best practices in digital democracy and youth inclusivity with 150 leaders around the world. Additionally, the Young Americas Forum V as a delegate in working group Corruption and Sustainable Development. Former ambassador of Youth Opportunities in Peru for 2 years, I’ve motivated a community of more than 3000 young people to get high education and develop professional/academic growth seminars virtually and physically about youth leadership, soft skills, and global citizenship in 21century.
