About Fernanda Nishikawa
I’m a senior sustainability and circular economy leader with 15+ years of experience, driving enterprise-wide waste reduction, materials circularity, and product stewardship strategies across global manufacturing and consumer product organizations.My work sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and execution, translating sustainability ambitions into scalable business outcomes. I’m known for influencing without authority in complex, matrixed organizations and for bridging the gap between technical rigor and executive clarity. With a foundation in environmental engineering and project management, and experience across North America and Latin America, I bring a systems mindset and a pragmatic, business-focused approach to sustainability, one that prioritizes scale, simplicity, and long-term value creation.
