About

I am the Europe editor at Sifted, the FT-backed media covering Europe’s startup and tech ecosystem. I focus on the Nordics and, more recently, have expanded my remit to include business development for the region. Alongside that, I moderate events and panels for Sifted and external organisations. Previously, I was a reporter at Dagens Industri’s Di Digital, where I co-hosted podcasts including Digitalpodden and Di Startup Stories, and helped run events such as Di Startup Tour. I also founded Di Female Founders, an event series spotlighting women entrepreneurs. I hold a BA in Business, an MA in International Studies and Diplomacy, and formal training in journalism. Before entering journalism, I worked as a management consultant at Accenture in London. In 2025, I was recognised as one of Europe’s 100 Women in Tech. 📩 Interested in connecting or collaborating?
