Bio

I am an accomplished policy adviser with a strong understanding of EU institutional processes, policies and priorities. I am now building an NGO working on carbon removal, one of the most pressing issues in tackling climate change. Carbon Gap is focusing on helping Europe become a world leader in deploying carbon removal by bridging the knowledge, policy and ambition gaps so that carbon removal becomes a critical pillar of European climate action and industrial policy.
