Turning environmental knowledge into stories that drive meaningful change
As Strategic Lead for Communication and Media at GRID-Arendal, I ensure that our environmental storytelling is grounded in science, shaped by values, and designed to reach people where it matters. I believe in the transformative power of communication to shift perspectives, strengthen connections, and catalyse meaningful action.
What I Bring
With over twenty years of experience in media, strategic communication, and environmental advocacy, I bring clarity, creativity, and direction to our messaging. My background in political journalism, paired with a master’s degree in leadership, enables me to work across platforms and partnerships, supporting accurate, engaging, and constructive reporting on the planetary crises we face. Collaboration and inclusion are central to my approach, ensuring that our stories reflect diverse voices and lived realities. I support GRID-Arendal’s mission by translating complex knowledge into accessible, compelling narratives that inspire engagement and action.
My Focus Areas
Media Engagement: I lead our media strategy and build strong relationships with journalists to amplify GRID-Arendal’s voice.
Strategic Communication: I shape communication frameworks that support project goals and reinforce our global presence.
Organisational Leadership: I guide the communication team and align cross-unit efforts to reflect strategic priorities.
Sector Influence: I collaborate with networks like UNEP to extend our impact and steer environmental dialogue.
In My Own Words
“Stories hold power. When we tell the right stories, grounded in truth and told with care, we invite people into the change we want to see.”
