About me

I have been working on sustainability and responsible sourcing programs in minerals and metals supply chains for more than 15 years.

I began my career designing and supporting the implementation of upstream due diligence systems for the metals used in electronic products. This work took me to Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Indonesia, where I saw first-hand the challenges and opportunities of artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM), a sector that supplies many of the minerals the world relies on.

Later, I transitioned to the jewellery industry, where I co-led the development of industry sustainability standards at the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC).

Today, as an independent consultant, I work mainly with jewellery brands and other companies across the jewellery supply chain. I help them build sustainability programs that align with leading industry standards and meet growing consumer demand for ethical, responsibly sourced jewellery.
