About me
Hello! I’m a tech enthusiast, climate advocate and world citizen that comes alive at the intersection of these fields.
After starting my professional journey in the creative world with a degree in computer animation, my interest in storytelling and visual arts led me to work in the film and TV industry.
Realising I also had a talent and passion for written storytelling, I quickly shifted my focus towards editorial. Initially writing about arts and culture, I gravitated towards to the other topics I care about: tech and climate solutions that have a positive impact on society and the environment.
I have since written for some of the largest global brands, including Google, Microsoft, Adobe and Deloitte, as well as international tech publications, SMEs, non-profits and start-ups. The most important driver for me is writing about purpose-led projects and solutions that are making a real difference in the world: telling stories worth sharing.
I always aim to share innovative stories, provoke new thought, and inspire positive change.
On my website you’ll find a variety of articles and interviews about entrepreneurial businesses, tech innovations, climate solutions, and cultural trends, as well as a portfolio of my photography and artwork. I hope my work inspires you to spread more positive messages and focus on the beauty in the world.
