Trained as an environmental and energy lawyer, Aimée has developed climate change and sustainability strategy in the corporate, governmental, and philanthropic sectors.

Aimée previously worked with Google.org, the World Bank, Environment2004, and Baker & McKenzie, and she negotiated the first bilateral and regional agreements on climate change while at the U.S. Department of Energy in the 1990s.

She was a National Co-Chair of Cleantech & Green Business for Obama, and in early 2009 she co-founded the Clean Economy Network, whose collaboration with other business groups through the We Can Lead campaign brought over 250 business leaders to Capitol Hill in October 2009, to advocate for passage of comprehensive climate change and energy legislation.

Aimée serves on several boards and advisory boards including the Homeland Security Advisory Council’s Task Force on Sustainability and Efficiency advising Secretary Janet Napolitano; the Board of Directors of the American Council on Renewable Energy; and the Advisory Board of the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy.
