About Hannah

I’m passionate about sustainability because I believe meaningful change starts when we are willing to question how things are usually done. With a background across law, business, strategy, and project management, I help organizations navigate ESG topics that sit between regulatory requirements and operational reality.

My career has been deliberately non-linear, built across Europe and Asia, and that is a real strength. It allows me to approach sustainability challenges from different perspectives, connect disciplines, and adapt quickly to diverse contexts. I work with both internal and external stakeholders, often where priorities differ and information is incomplete, bringing structure while listening carefully and turning fragmented inputs into aligned decisions.

With more than nine years of experience, I focus on ESG and CSR work where execution matters as much as intent. I support organizations with clarity, consistency, and follow-through, helping sustainability initiatives translate into concrete progress.

Typical topics I work on include ESG and CSRD reporting, governance, sustainability project management, stakeholder coordination, and ESG data structuring.
