Philipe Alvarenga

I love biking for fun, commuting, and exercise. Although I've enjoyed riding bikes since I was a kid in Brazil, it wasn't until about 5 years ago, when I moved to São Paulo—a very car-centric city—that I truly embraced cycling as a fun and breezy commute, to help overcome the stress and long hours spent in traffic. This realization inspired me to use my background in management consultancy, entrepreneurship, economics, and communication towards improving urban mobility.

For over five years, I’ve been dedicated to the urban transportation industry. In 2021, I joined Tembici, the largest bike-sharing company in South America, using my experience to enhance and align operational processes across their 14 bike-sharing systems.

Since moving to Vancouver, I have been working at Vancouver Bike Share (DBA Mobi by Rogers) as Shop and Projects Manager, where I have been involved in their RFP bid to provide a shared e-scooter program to the City of Vancouver and led initiatives to improve operational efficiency. Now, a year after arriving, I feel it’s time to start giving back to this amazing place that I fortunately call home. I'm eager to contribute my skills and passion to HUB as a member of the Board.
