About Me
Using sustainability compliance to drive resilience, growth, and business value
I am the founder of Baiamonte ESG and Sustainability Services, an independent advisory practice supporting organisations in using sustainability compliance as a strategic lever to strengthen governance, build resilience, and create long-term business value.
My work focuses on helping companies implement practical systems aligned with emerging regulations such as the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). I support organisations in mapping supply chains, designing traceability and governance frameworks, and integrating sustainability into procurement, risk management, and operational decision-making.
Previously, I worked at the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), where I coordinated global multi-stakeholder platforms and C-suite working groups on responsible sourcing, supply chain due diligence, and traceability across agricultural and food value chains. I co-authored industry frameworks with partners including KPMG, AICPA-CIMA, and the Institute of Internal Auditors, and supported companies in preparing for new EU sustainability regulations.
I have also worked on sustainable business model design through advisory roles and EU-funded initiatives, including Horizon 2020 projects, supporting companies and research partners in integrating environmental and social impact into business operations.
I hold a PhD in International Relations from the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in Geneva, where my research focused on environmental governance, policy networks, and sustainability transitions. My work combines academic rigour with hands-on advisory experience to help organisations translate sustainability requirements into robust, operational, and decision-useful systems.
