Hi, I'm Valeria.
Nice to meet you!
I'm a climate and public policy professional, merging my career ambition with my creative side. Welcome to my website!
I'm a climate and public policy professional, merging my career ambition with my creative side. Welcome to my website!
I work at the intersection of climate policy and infrastructure, focused on how regulatory decisions translate into real-world systems. My work is grounded in public service and a commitment to understanding complexity in practice.
My professional path spans local, federal, and state government, now focusing on energy policy. I'm committed to building a more sustainable world where no one goes without their basic needs. I believe the way forward is transforming government programs to genuinely serve people's values — programs built on rigorous research but shaped by the lived experiences of real communities.
View ExperienceReflections on policy, district energy, leadership, and systems thinking — written in real time as I grow in the field. I write about what I’m learning in real time — from technical site visits to policy conferences and reflections on systems thinking. Not as an expert, but as a practitioner committed to growth, clarity, and responsible public service.
ExploreEffective policy requires more than analysis — it requires context, communication, and responsibility. I approach infrastructure and governance work with a systems mindset, creative clarity, and a long-term view of public service.
Rooted in local compassion and shaped by international experience, I bring a cross-cultural lens to everything I do — connecting place, people, and purpose. My background has taken me across countries and communities, and that exposure informs how I show up in every room I enter.
