Aurora Dawn Benton
Founder, Astrapto
Astrapto means to illuminate. Aurora's mission is to shed light on social and environmental issues and drive positive impact by enabling and encouraging ANYONE who is willing. To a hammer. everything's a nail - to her it's ALWAYS about culture, empowerment, process, communication, trust, accountability... it's about the humans with all their hopes and fears who facilitate or hinder sustainable progress.
Aurora aims to make sustainability practical and approachable. My philosophy is nicely summed up in: "Better a mediocre idea with brilliant execution than a brilliant idea with mediocre execution." (Fernando Trias de Bes).
She loves speaking on social and environmental topics - her passion shines through!
Aurora teaches and coaches on starting green teams, selling and leading sustainability initiatives, waste prevention and reduction, food & beverage sustainability, climate action, sustainable procurement, buy local programs, supplier diversity, social entrepreneurship, and more!
