My Job

I am heading up the H/Advisors Brussels Tech practice, advising clients on issues at the intersection of EU tech policy, political affairs, and geopolitics. Business development and team management are also part of my day-to-day duties.

My Experience

I’ve been a public affairs consultant for six years now. Previously, I worked at a think tank focused on geopolitical and international security issues, and prior to that I was a political staffer for a Member of the Canadian Parliament.

My Proudest Achievements

Helping a client in the digital sector to establish a new entity within the EU from the ground up. We executed a comprehensive 2-year campaign, encompassing over 100 meetings with regulators, companies, associations, academics, and civil society to secure favorable conditions for a seamless launch. The campaign culminated in a high-profile launch event featuring a former Prime Minister and a Deputy Director-General of the European Commission.
