I am a compliance carbon analyst at Veyt, where I focus on North American carbon markets. As climate ambition is increasing across the US and Canada, so too is the role of carbon markets.
My aim is to analyse and convey the complexities and dynamics of the Western Climate Initiative (WCI) and Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) markets in a way that best equips those participating in these programmes.
At Veyt, I am building up our North American platforms to provide comprehensive insight into the many different aspects of the compliance carbon markets. I provide a wide range of analytics, both written and visual, that cover topics ranging from policy developments to market trends and outlooks.
I also produce weekly reports for our clients that break down market activity and developments and provide a forward-looking analysis on where the market is heading. In addition to analyses, I am building supply and demand forecasting models for all the sectors covered in the WCI and RGGI markets.

My role is to pull all this together and provide our clients with the knowledge to participate confidently in carbon markets and to be aware of all the moving pieces. Bringing transparency to these complex markets is a crucial aspect of their success.

Through studying International Affairs at George Washington University for my undergraduate degree and Environmental Policy at London School of Economics for my master's degree I became aware of the intersectionality between global inequity and the climate crisis. I believe that my work at Veyt is helping strengthen the role carbon markets have in facilitating an inclusive, equitable, and effective approach to decarbonisation.

I am based in Oslo, I speak Greek, German and Spanish, and I enjoy track and field.
