Hello! I’m a freelance analyst / writer, based in Oslo, Norway. I work with a range of climate and energy groups to advocate for, analyse and report on major issues in this space. I’m focused on Europe, the US and Australia, and I’m currently writing a lot about fossil fuel extraction, data centre growth and greenwashing / climate delay.
I’m always up for work: please get in touch and we can chat. You can find information about my business details (self-employed, based in Norway) here.
I currently write for outlets like Crikey and RenewEconomy, and have previously contributed to outlets like Foreign Policy, The New Republic, The Age and the Guardian.
For all of my work, I don’t use generative tools for text, images or videos, or as a reference point or for knowledge retrieval, due to the stack of ethical, environmental and inaccuracy issues that plague them.
I contribute to The Australia Institute as a Senior Research Associate, alongside working with various Europe-based NGOs, contributing to and sharing their analytical work on climate and energy.
I am a committee member for Comms Declare, a brilliant organisation that is fighting hard to ensure PR and marketing aren’t used to worsen the climate crisis or expand fossil fuels. I’m also on the advisory group for ‘Green Teaming AI‘, a project run out of Mistra Environmental Communication that aims to interrogate the way environment manifests in generative AI development.
I worked for six years at a wind farm company in Australia (first in operations and data analysis, and then in communications and advocacy), then at a government renewable energy agency. After that I worked as a freelance writer, and then for a year at Australia’s government science agency in communications, focusing on data science.
I wrote a book in 2021, about the politics, data and social issues around Australia’s energy transition, with the University of New South Wales press. I have published a few pieces of academic work, which you can find here. After moving to Norway in 2019, I finished the book, and then in 2022 I joined a global network of climate change communicators, working on corporate accountability issues until early 2025, when I switched back to freelance writing.
