Founder and Director of Le Mouton Vert
No Poverty, Gender Equality, Affordable and Clean Energy, Decent Work and Economic Growth, Responsible Consumption and Production, Climate Action.
In Switzerland, I worked for different design studios, consolidating in a prestigious company. My job was to make all the design for luxury hotels in the Swiss Alps, there I consolidated my professional career and job skills, learning a lot of design and European labor. In my private life, I worked in organic gardens, I did an internship in a renowned workshop of natural dyes on wool, I participated in meetings of Swiss women spinners who performed hand made yarn, I realized courses of weaving and point sticks, I was invited to participate in an exhibition at the national level of textile work and I had the experience of living in a European collective of social work and self-management in the area of orchards and livestock organic textile production in Switzerland and France. I am a pioneer in innovative fabric in Chile thanks to my constants experiences.
I have mentors who help me to improve and have a more comprehensive and better economic vision:
