What I can offer

International Communications

My experience includes speech-writing, media liason and social media management. My work with global leaders and key stakeholders ensures that your communications will not only be heard, but will also make a lasting impact on the world stage.

Having spent over 16 years covering the technology revolution for leading publications, my journalistic experience can be your greatest asset. Whether you’re an emerging tech startup or an established brand looking to penetrate the Danish and international markets, I provide content strategy, development, and PR services that are rooted in authenticity and precision. By leveraging my network and knowledge, your story will be told in the most compelling way possible.

Innovative Leadership & Facilitation

As a Ambassador and facilitator at UNLEASH, the world’s largest Innovation Lab focused on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), I bring a unique blend of leadership and facilitation skills centered around innovation. Whether you’re an organization striving to meet your SDG targets or a business looking for design thinking and team development expertise, I provide mentorship, facilitation, and strategic direction to ensure your projects not only succeed but also contribute positively to global change.

Education & Democratic Development

My tenure in the Danish folk high schools has instilled in me a profound understanding of the transformative power of education. If you’re an educational institution or an NGO looking to strengthen democratic values, political activism, or sustainability among the youth, I offer tailored programs and workshops. Harnessing my hands-on experience in nurturing individual skills and fostering democratic development, I promise to create an enriching learning environment for your audience.

Public Policy & Government Affairs

Being recognized as an Obama Leader Europe and having volunteered with organizations such as the UNDP and Red Cross, I am deeply attuned to the pulse of public affairs on both a continental and global scale. If your institution or business seeks guidance in navigating the intricacies of public policy, government affairs, or even campaign management, my comprehensive understanding and network in this domain will be invaluable. 

Project Leadership & Strategy Execution

Steering successful projects requires more than just management—it demands visionary leadership, a deep understanding of stakeholders, and the agility to adapt in dynamic environments. Drawing upon my experiences—from leading large-scale international events to coordinating impactful initiatives at UNLEASH—I offer extensive project leadership services. Whether it’s executing complex projects centered on democracy, human rights, or the Sustainable Development Goals, or guiding tech innovations in the ever-evolving media landscape, I bring a unique blend of strategic oversight and hands-on execution.
