Ami Valdemoro has over 15 years of experience leading social sector organizations and managing impact investments around the world. She ran the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation-funded Africa Tobacco Control Consortium, the philanthropy’s first ever non-communicable disease investment. As Executive Director, she helped to set up the social impact portfolio of the first U.S.-registered B(enefit) corporation in the Philippines, Generation HOPE. She sits on the Board of Liter of Light, a community-based solar lighting initiative that empowers one million beneficiaries a year across 32 countries. Through her company Three Points Ventures, she has trained and educated thousands of young students, mid-career professionals, and senior management across Asia on leadership, communication, and growth.

In her coaching practice, Ami works with high-performing individuals who want to reach their personal or professional goals with balance and ease. By listening, asking key questions, and sharing her insights, she helps her clients come up with creative, customized strategies to transform their lives so that they can stay productive, relevant, and thrive.

Ami has been invited as an expert and speaker at the Women In Sustainability, Environment, and Renewable Energy Forum; the United Nations; and UNLEASH, and is a core member of the teaching faculty at the Center for Asia Leadership, with whom she has published works on teaching and practicing leadership in the region.

She received her master’s degree in public policy, with a focus on management, leadership, and decision-making, from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, and graduated with honors from Georgetown University. When she’s not coaching, she’s probably traveling somewhere without wifi or joining people for random jam sessions with her voice or her violin.
