Background

About Denise Janer

I specialize in developing strategies that drive measurable impact—whether through consulting, business development, or direct engagement with communities. As Director of Sustainability and Impact at Wovoka, I lead initiatives that connect global investment with on-the-ground reforestation, carbon markets, and community-driven sustainability efforts. I’ve worked with farmers, investors, and policymakers to build solutions that align sustainability with business growth. I led the launch of a premium brand showcasing sustainably produced farmer products, designing its market strategy, business model, and go-to-market approach. My work extends from crafting high-level impact narratives for investors to working alongside local farmers to ensure their voices are heard. I navigate the intersection of science, policy, and community impact, ensuring sustainability efforts are both credible and investable. Previously, I worked on coastal resilience, sustainable infrastructure projects, and nature-based solutions for carbon markets. I’m always open to conversations about climate finance, impact investing, and sustainability-driven business models—let’s connect.
