Intl. Environmental & Natural Resources Law
I help Nordic firms and institutions move confidently across the OHADA and CEMAC legal space - bringing Arctic-standard environmental principles to energy, mining and infrastructure work in West and Central Africa.
LL.M. candidate, University of Iceland - Green Energy Transition & Sustainable Resource Management
The bridge
Trained in the OHADA legal system used across 17 African nations and now reading International Environmental and Natural Resources Law in Reykjavík, I sit at the meeting point of two legal worlds. That vantage lets me translate Nordic environmental discipline into African regulatory reality - and the reverse - so partnerships are equitable, compliant and built to last.
Strategic value

Applying Arctic-standard environmental legal principles to resource extraction in the Congo Basin, keeping projects aligned with global compliance.
