Daniela Rosas es estudiante de Gestión y Alta Dirección con mención en Gestión Social y Pública en la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) y Presidenta de 180 Degrees Consulting PUCP, donde lidera proyectos de consultoría estratégica para organizaciones sociales y emprendimientos de impacto. Ayacuchana de origen, su trabajo está profundamente conectado con la generación de soluciones que respondan a realidades diversas y descentralizadas.

Su enfoque se sitúa en la intersección entre tecnología, innovación social y estrategia, utilizando inteligencia artificial generativa, herramientas no-code y diseño centrado en el usuario (UX/UI) para transformar ideas en soluciones escalables, accesibles y con impacto medible. Ha implementado soluciones tecnológicas en ONGs y proyectos sociales, integrando automatización, marketing social y herramientas como n8n y Lovable para optimizar procesos, fortalecer el fundraising y movilizar comunidades de manera innovadora.

Ha sido Parlamentaria Joven Nacional del Congreso de la República del Perú, donde contribuyó al diseño de propuestas legislativas en temas ambientales, participación ciudadana y transparencia, incorporando indicadores de impacto y mecanismos de seguimiento. Asimismo, fue becaria del Millennium Fellowship (ONU) y participante del Aspire Leaders Program de Harvard University, consolidando su formación en liderazgo global e impacto social.
