About Me
I founded 1818 to provide independent, substance-driven sustainability and ESG advisory, focused on helping organisations turn sustainability and purpose into drivers of long-term value.
​
My work supports leadership teams in navigating increasing regulatory, market, and supply chain expectations, and in building sustainability strategies, governance, and structures that hold up over time. The focus is not on reporting alone, but on ensuring sustainability becomes a credible and integrated part of business decision-making.
​
The name 1818 reflects commitment, continuity, partnership, and long-term thinking — principles that underpin both sustainable businesses and my advisory work. The number also marks a personal milestone, a reminder that commitment is a decision, not a coincidence.
​
I bring over 20 years of international experience across branding, marketing, product-portfolio management, and sustainability strategy, working with Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized organisations, and purpose-driven startups. My background combines strategic positioning, organisational alignment, and ESG implementation, enabling organisations to translate sustainability ambition into credible action.
​
My advisory work spans sustainability strategy development, ESG frameworks and certifications including B Corp, EcoVadis, SBTi, and ESR, carbon footprint measurements and decarbonisation roadmaps, and purpose-driven positioning and sustainability communications.
​
I work independently and in collaboration with specialised partners, depending on client needs, providing strategic guidance, framework expertise, and pragmatic implementation support.
What I Stand For
Long-term value creation
Sustainability and ESG should strengthen an organisation’s long-term resilience and competitiveness. I focus on strategies and structures that create durable value — not short-term positioning or box-ticking.
Integrity and honesty
Credibility matters. I value transparency, evidence-based recommendations, and clear communication about trade-offs, risks, and limitations. Not every claim should be made, and not every framework fits every organisation.
Pragmatic partnership
I work as a trusted, hands-on partner, adapting to each organisation’s reality, capabilities, and pace. My approach is practical, commercially grounded, and focused on implementation, not theory.
Trusted allies
I take pride in my collaborations with forward-thinking organisations committed to achieving sustainable impact and navigating complexities in their journey towards responsible business practices.
