At our 12th #HumanCapital talk yesterday, we explored how the care economy shapes women's economic opportunities. With women performing 76% of unpaid care duties globally, smart policy to reduce this burden can increase women's economic participation.

Yesterday at the Transforming Transportation conference, I discussed how road safety enables access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. Safe roads connect homes, neighborhoods & workplaces—the environments where #HumanCapital develops. #TTDC25

Was honored to share insights on leadership at the World Bank’s Youth2Youth panel yesterday w/ Manuela V. Ferro and Radi Anguelova. I shared thoughts on risk-taking, work-life balance, and finding your voice. The key to voice is to start small, build confidence & gradually grow.
