Hello SHE Friends,
I have been a member of the SHE team for one week and I have
already made it to the United Nations! Although I was only there this year as a
attendee to the Commission on the Status of Women, one of my goals is to make
sure SHE is there as one of the lead presenters at next year’s conference to
prove that our market-based approach has unleashed the social and economic
change needed to reduce gender disparities in education, health, economics, and
social status. It’s one of many goals that I am excited to deliver upon for
SHE.
As
the SHE Global Fellow, I support SHE’s business development and capital raising
efforts, and manages SHE’s blog and social media presence. I come from a marketing background, having worked in
both digital and retail marketing for a French luxury beauty brand, and so I am
incredibly excited to add a new perspective on how we can win over one of the
toughest consumers – a 13 year girl.
The scope and variety of my work is never
boring, and the SHE’s staff enthusiasm and passion is contagious! It’s been
incredibly valuable and rewarding to see how each member of the team contribute
to the process of bringing the SHE28 initiative to market.
SHE works tirelessly to provide girls and women access to
affordable, eco-friendly pads and its exciting to discover how much visible
change that has already been produced in Rwanda with our education program, our
advocacy efforts to eliminate the excise tax on pads, and business development as
we move the SHE LaunchPad from the lab to large-scale manufacturing.
I can’t wait to share more with you about my work at SHE
throughout the year and give you the first-hand scoop on exciting developments!
