About Ayla Vagal
Some careers follow a straight line.Mine started with a question:How do spaces and stories shape how people feel, think, and act?That question led me from architecture to sustainability and ultimately into a cross-functional career built on strategy, storytelling, and education. For 15+ years, I’ve worked across CPG and built environment sectors helping global companies connect purpose to performance through ESG marketing, capability building, and client engagement. EXPERTISE• Sustainability StrategyI craft frameworks, roadmaps, and certifications that embed ESG into core business functions aligning climate ambition with commercial performance. • Marketing & Client EngagementI translate technical ESG goals into brand messaging and client strategy, supporting growth through storytelling, sales enablement, and executive visibility. • Education & Capability BuildingFrom Continuing Education Units to workshops, I design learning experiences that build internal fluency and empower teams to take ownership of sustainability goals. Created 60+ sustainability marketing tools, CEU courses, and ESG content used across 200+ accounts and by internal teams. Designed and delivered training that reached 1,600+ associates from sales and marketing to product and senior leadership. Supported $130M+ in commercial influence by embedding ESG in value propositions, RFPs, and regenerative product campaigns.
