My passion is to advance sustainable development by positioning it more prominently on the global agenda. I believe that strong communications are essential to driving awareness, engagement, and action. By combining clear messaging with impactful visuals, I aim to tell unique stories.

With experience in renewable energy and sustainability, I design strategies for NGOs, business alliances, campaigns and events, blending mass and tailored messaging.

I run effective email campaigns, manage websites independently and deliver large scale events with over 10,000 participants to date, covering comms, logistics, tendering and coordination.

I have worked on projects in Belgium, Turkey, Germany, Netherlands, Singapore, Tanzania, Nigeria, Cote d’Ivoire, Burundi, Lesotho and Uganda, and I am ready to travel to ensure quality results.

Recent projects:

Through an effective comms campaign, EAIF 2025 could attract over 600 in-person participants and countless virtual listeners.

A unique marketing campaign going hand-in-hand with the local media catalysed Burundi's renewable energy market.

Through tailored reachouts and a campaign giving priority to the real-life effects of the sub-standard battery recycling, over 80 companies were persuaded to endorse new battery recycling guidelines.

A strong communications work featuring a publication, a video, and a digital marketing campaign underpinned the impact of renewables.

Developing communication strategies for clarity, impact, and action.

Concise and timely reachouts managed to attract about 200 listeners by average to each webinar of the series.

A local PR campaign followed by a regional event managed to increase interest in renewable energies in the country.

The end… and the start of our collaboration.
