Paulo

Trustee

I spent the last twenty years leading teams to raise philanthropic income to causes I care about: education, human rights and the arts. I am a driven fundraising and partnership professional with experience of securing six- and seven-figure gifts from individuals, corporations and trusts and foundations. I am also a trained life coach.

I was introduced to AEE by a friend, and I was incredibly impressed by the creativity, commitment and quality of the work the charity delivers. Growing up as a foster child, with ADHD and dyslexia in the 80’s was somewhat challenging. So, I am committed to help young people and it is incredibly rewarding for me to be able to contribute to AEE’s work.

I love reading - novels, biographies, and listening to music – R&B, soul, rap, jazz. I enjoy open water swimming, yoga and meditation; long walks with my crazy dog brings me joy.
