He brings 20 years’ diverse international experience on sustainability and multi-stakeholder partnering, with a particular focus on the role of the private sector in sustainable development. His partnering work includes evaluation, research, and analysis; the development of operational guidance and practical tools; and facilitation, training, and public speaking.

He has worked with multiple organizations and partnerships at global, regional and community levels, including in nutrition, water and sanitation, food and agriculture, education, the extractive sector, and renewable energy. These include Johnson & Johnson, FAO, the Z Zurich Foundation, the Scaling Up Nutrition Movement, and VSO.
