Cibele graduated as a business administrator in the top business school in Brazil, and worked up the corporate ladder, starting as a financial analyst to become a director for one of Brazil´s main industrial conglomerate’s venture capital arm. After 10 years, she quit to start her own consultancy as a pioneer in the corporate sustainability arena in Brazil. Within a few years she had established herself with a solid presence in that marketplace, while working with major foreign corporations in the field as well, such as SustainAbility and BSR, giving speeches in the US and performing work and lecturing in Africa, and being invited as judge to top prizes in the segment. Her main clients were large corporations such as Alcoa, Basf, Fibria and Natura.

In addition, in 1997 she started her self-development and spiritual journey by participating in Pathwork groups and energy work trainings, which gave a special and unique touch to her consulting work. In 2008 she married her current Brazilian-American husband and ended up moving to Miami to help raise his 3 teenage sons.

In the USA, Cibele decided to attend the call to be in service and share her transformational path by becoming a Pathwork Helper and a Professional Integral Coach. Thus, 25 years after she left college, she blends her unique set of knowledge and skills into a program she calls “Sustainability from Within", her way of being the change she wants to see in the world.
