For me, communication is ultimately about relationships – and about shaping messages so they truly resonate with the receiver. As an advisor within both investor relations and sustainability communications, I strongly believe that long-term value creation and sustainability go hand in hand, and that how you communicate can make a real difference in building trust and engagement. I thrive in close collaborations where strategies are shaped through dialogue. In my work, I support companies across industries and stages of development, navigating both planned milestones and unforeseen events. Prior to Vero, I worked in audit at EY, primarily with listed companies. That experience allows me to combine a trained eye for numbers with the ability to translate complex facts into strategic, trust-building communication.

I joined Vero in January 2026 and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, with focus on International Business and Marketing, from Uppsala University.

When many things happen at once, strategic communication truly makes a difference – both internally and externally. As project manager and advisor at Vero, I work closely with clients and teams in complex, time-sensitive situations as well as in long-term engagements.

I lead assignments within crisis communications and M&A, and I am always ready to step in operationally with responsibility for communications when needed.

I joined Vero in 2021. Previously, I worked as Communications Strategist at the City of Stockholm. I hold a degree in Strategic Communication from Lund University and have completed advanced project management training at Berghs School of Communication.
