About Samia Aboni

Sustainability professional with over eight years of experience in climate change and energy policy, WASH, strategic planning, and operations. Currently pursuing a Master’s in Environmental Management at Duke University with a focus on Energy and Business. I bring a unique perspective shaped by my architecture academic background with a career in production management, climate change policy and water sector. My career began in operations and production at British American Tobacco (BAT), where I optimized workflows and enhanced operational efficiency. This experience laid the groundwork for my transition to sustainability, working with organizations like UNDP and UNICEF. I have led projects addressing climate adaptation, energy governance, and transportation electrification policy, mobilizing over $20 million in funding for climate-resilient initiatives. At Duke, I am deepening my expertise in energy optimization models, power markets, and sustainable business practices in the transportation and built environment sector. My passion lies in driving scalable, innovative solutions to climate change through clean energy transitions and sustainable production. Let’s connect if you’re interested in collaborating on energy governance, sustainable operations, or accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy.
