This page provides a snapshot of my work. You will find links to public presentations; research addressing private sector leadership on climate; efforts to shape and then translate the Paris Agreement; and a wealth of content exploring the nexus between human rights and climate change. Hyperlinks are provided to steer you to presentations, publications and media appearances in print, radio and television.
Please note, consulting work done bilaterally with governments, companies, international organizations, non-profits and philanthropies is typically confidential, often subject to non-disclosure agreements, and so is not presented below.

Blogs and Articles
I authored a total of 64 blogs for BSR between 2013 and 2017. These can be found on my staff profile page. I also authored numerous blogs for the We Mean Business coalition during the same period. These are available here. A limited number of the blogs I authored while serving at the World Resources Institute as Director of International Climate are available from an archived WRI page here. Finally, I have written numerous blogs without a byline for various clients in recent years. This is an example taken from my work on climate policy with the World Business Council on Sustainable Development (WBCSD). I also regularly post articles on my Linked-In page.
