It has been an honour to serve as a director on the board of The Atmospheric Fund ($100M AUM) and the real takeaway is the joy it has been to be able to contribute to the long-term success of impact and sustainable investing. In my 12 years on the board, we've seen a massive change in the seriousness of how ESG is approached by corporations and the public, and I’ve had the incredible opportunity to be a part of that growth.

The Atmospheric Fund advances the most promising concepts by investing, providing grants, influencing policies and running programs. The best part is how much I learned through collaboration amongst the amazing board directors and the outstanding Atmospheric team. We are all drawn from different spheres; from private, public and non-profit sectors, and bring different perspectives on ideas and opportunities for reducing carbon emissions.

My Atmospheric Fund board work has allowed me to see what impact and sustainable strategies work best in practice, learnings I will apply as I continue with my directorships into the future.
