Member Spotlight

Julianna Piccolo

Sustainability Analyst
Quadra Group

The supportive network of peers within the ESRS executive committee has been instrumental in my career development. They've introduced me to a valuable network of sustainability and environment professionals, provided mentorship, and fostered a collaborative environment where we can discuss how to educate the mining community on environmental and sustainability topics.
