My Proudest Achievements
Advised a coalition of EU clean-tech companies on how to advocate for the first ever EU advanced biofuels mandates, helped establishing the pan- European PA presence of a European agri-tech giant, advanced policy ideas on how to use AI to fight climate change and last but certainly not least co-founding Infinity Public Affairs!

My Favourite Brussels anecdote
On my first day as a young consultant my boss rushed into the room and asked me to do some ‘’new biz’’ research for a company. Apart from the fact that I had difficulty understanding his accent, I had no idea what ‘’new biz’’ meant, and neither did the other stagiaire sitting next to me. I still got the name of the company and did research which turned to be quite useful and my boss was happy. When my family asked me in the evening what I have done during my first day at work, I said ‘’I have no idea, but apparently, I am quite good at it’’. So, I gave it a try.
