I am a consultant, trainer and lecturer focusing on social development and sustainable business. With 16 years of experience working with over 30 organisations in 27 countries I am able to see the bigger picture and quickly understand what my clients need. At the same time I have an eye for detail and always look for solutions that make sense in a given context.
I enjoy working with businesses, civil society, international organisations and governments on complex issues and challenging projects that make an impact. My services range from conducting assessments, evaluating projects and developing strategies, to producing publications and training teams. I work on a variety of development and sustainability issues and also lecture at university.
