Lola Fernandez was born in Spain, but considers herself a citizen of the world as she’s lived and worked outside of her home country for more than half her life. As a girl she always had a love for nature, and grew up with anxiety about the future of the planet, and she became an activist at an early age.

During the nearly 25 years she built a corporate career, but had a sense she was meant to do something more. She started toying with the idea of her own business, where she could set the values to align to what she really believed in. She left the corporate world to embark on the biggest adventure of her life, founding Green Cloud Nine.
