It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Lucila. Luli has been a mentor for me the past year, and I feel very honored to have her in my life. She walk with me through the process of getting on board at The Amani Institute when I decided to pursue my postgraduate and was very very kind with me through the whole process of going back to school. After I graduated and move back to Buenos Aires we went to the process of ideating and starting Alt | Innovación Social, and the whole journey had been about growth. I am always in awe of Lucila's passion around impact, change and innovation but mainly about her clarity to communicate ideas and complex concepts and her amazing skills to design programs and to facilitate innovation processes. As a team member or a leader, Lucila earns my highest recommendation.
