Bringing Clarity to Climate Policy
I started working on international and European climate policy in 2004, and I’ve spent most of my professional life as a policymaker.
Today, I run my own climate policy advisory, Climate Principles, and serve as the Chair of Carbon Management Europe, and on the Board of Advisors of Patch and Carbon Gap. From 2021-2026, I served on the Board of Directors of Puro.earth.
I share the latest insights via speaking engagements in my Inside Climate Policy blog and CDR Policy Scoop podcast. I have written or contributed to a number of publications and frequently get quoted in media.
