Hello! I am a communications and policy professional with over fifteen years of experience in the field of campaigns and advocacy. I am currently working as Senior Advisor at Principles for Peace, a Geneva-based foundation working on conflict prevention and peace processes around the world.
Previous roles included working as communications director at the Paris Peace Forum; as press and media advisor to Bérangère Couillard, French Minister for Gender Equality and the Fight against Discrimination; as senior manager for media relations at Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance; on two US presidential election campaigns; as a communications consultant in London, Brussels and Paris; and as an in-house communicator both at the French National Institute for Agricultural Research and at EY (formerly Ernst & Young).
Born in the US to an American mother and an Irish father, I am a naturalized French citizen. After schooling in the UK, Ireland and Belgium, I did both my undergraduate and graduate studies at Sciences Po Paris (the Paris Institute of Political Studies), obtaining a degree in Central and Eastern European Studies and a master’s in Finance. I also spent a year abroad studying at the Faculty of Social Sciences at Charles University in Prague.
