Isabel became involved in the family business recently. She visited the timber plantations with the head of Social Responsibility and realized the positive impacts of the business in all its natural and social surroundings. Soon after, Aglomerados Cotopaxi decided to publish its first sustainability report and Isabel was invited to work as the internal counterpart to a consultant firm. The result of this appointment was a deep dive into the business from the perspective of sustainability, that yielded the first sustainability report for the company and several related projects.

Isabel’s work philosophy is cooperative. She believes that teamwork is always the best way to get a good project to work sustainably, and that asking questions is more important than getting answers. Isabel’s eclectic background allows her to contribute a fresh outlook to any business that she works for.

She holds a BS in Animal Science from Cornell University; MBA from Universidad San Francisco de Quito; MEd. In Secondary Education from University of Alabama. GRI and sustainability reporting workshops.
