AMS Institute | Author Circularity Gap Report | Journalist, Editor & Sustainability Content Strategist

Over the past ten years, I've immersed myself in creating and managing multimedia content to strategically advance the global transition to a sustainable future. I have built up skills in journalism and storytelling across multiple platforms in mainstreaming the notion of the Global Circularity Gap, championing an alternative protein future in the B2B food sector and campaigning for systems-thinking in solving today's polycrisis.

As the Lead of Editorial and Writing at Circle Economy, I built the team from scratch and defined editorial strategies and processes for the entire company of 60+ people. I guided a team of editors and writers who work with researchers to structure and write compelling reports and content from complex and technical research. This includes prominent publications such as the Circularity Gap Report, which the Guardian and National Geographic have covered.
