Academic Output

Research

My research focuses on the intersection of business and the natural environment.

  • Specific research interests include how companies come to understand and prepare for physical risks, e.g climate adaptation strategies, scenario planning, risk and crisis management.
  • In addition, I am interested in interdisciplinarity and how we build knowledge that crosses disciplinary boundaries.
  • I have also worked on win–win strategies that aim to improve environmental and financial performance simultaneously, and how they can be complicated by rebound effects.

I came to academia via the OECD, where I worked as a consultant, before completing a joint PhD at KU Leuven and UCLouvain. Hover over a journal to explore my publications.
