Excited to join XPRIZE as Team Relations Manager for the Wildfires competition, Claudia brings 10 years of experience working with the United Nations and International Non-Governmental Organizations in development and humanitarian emergency contexts such as South Sudan, Cameroon, Mali and Côte d'Ivoire, delivering on program strategy, donor relations, grant-writing, resource mobilization, and communications. Prior to her work at the United Nations, she worked in Communications and Business Development for D-Orbit, a space logistics startup.
She holds a MSc degree in Carbon Management from the University of Edinburgh and a B.A. Degree in International Relations from the University of California, Davis.
When Claudia is not working to advance solutions that can drive the world towards a more sustainable future for all, you can find her on the open road bikepacking. Her dream is to cycle the Silk Road in one go.
