Hehewutei “Cody” Amakali

Cody (she/her) is a systems synthesist who transforms complex challenges into regenerative possibilities.

With a foundation in geoscience and energy development, design and political ecology, she brings an uncommon ability to move fluidly between technical excellence and human-centered solutions. Her work spans leading $100M+ upstream projects, developing carbon market policies, and architecting frameworks where traditional wisdom meets modern infrastructure needs.

Known for questioning constructively and connecting seemingly disparate elements, Cody excels at bringing diverse groups into ethical collaboration. She crafts solutions that honors diverse knowledge systems and meets contemporary challenges.

When not weaving together multifaceted solutions, you'll find Cody seeking experiences that continually deepen her understanding of natural systems and place-based wisdom.
