Testimonials
I had the pleasure of working with Adriana for four years at Amazon, and what always stood out was her ability to cut through complexity and get to the heart of a business challenge quickly. She has a real instinct for identifying what actually matters, filtering out the noise, and translating data into clear direction for leaders to act on. She is equally comfortable working in ambiguous environments where the problem itself is not yet well defined, which is often exactly where the most important work happens. I recommend her and the team at BiA without reservation to any organization looking for a partner who can help cut through complexity and drive real results.

I recruited Adriana onto my team at Amazon after seeing what she could do at Microsoft, and it was one of the best hiring decisions I made. She has a rare ability to take messy, high-stakes situations (crisis responses, risk assessments, ambiguous data) and distill them into clear, actionable strategy. Leaders trusted her judgement because she never gave them a simple answer dressed up as insight; she did the work to understand business risks and tradeoffs first. Any organization working with Adriana and BiA Consulting is getting a sharp, steady strategic thinker who will tell you what you need to hear, not just what’s easy to say.

Understanding sustainable natural resources management and industries across the Pacific Northwest region and beyond requires strong systems thinking and an ability to work across diverse industries, government agencies, and stakeholders.
