About Carl

I’m a communications consultant specialising in policy, sustainability, and urban mobility. I help organisations turn complex ideas into clear, engaging, and impactful content.

I work with NGOs, think tanks, and public institutions to design and deliver strategic communications that reach the right audiences and have experience crafting communications materials designed to reach groups from decision-makers to the general public.

With experience at the International Transport Forum at the OECD in Paris and Frontier25 in Abu Dhabi, I combine policy research expertise with hands-on communications execution. I understand how to translate technical topics into compelling narratives across digital platforms.

I can support you with:

-Communication strategy & messaging
-Social media strategy and content (LinkedIn, X)
-Policy communication & research translation
-Articles, reports, and editorial content
-Digital campaigns and audience engagement

I’ve worked across the US, India, Europe, and the UAE, and bring a strong ability to adapt messaging across cultural and institutional contexts.

Based in Paris, I work in English and French and can integrate quickly into international teams.
