At the weekend: I’m hanging out with my family in the mountains or reading

An idea that powers me: “I’m driven by the potential of communication and storytelling to empower individuals and organisations with knowledge. By crafting clear and engaging stories, I aim to make complex ideas accessible and actionable, encouraging a broader understanding and participation in social equality and sustainability efforts. My focus is on using storytelling as a tool not just to inform, but to inspire action and drive real-world change, fostering a culture of informed decision-making and inclusive progress.”

More about me:  A career highlight was the launch of the Global Centre for Climate Adaptation with the Government of the Netherlands and UNEP.
I have also contributed academic publications to the discourse on content production, including a chapter about communicating the UN SDGs.
