An experienced urban planner
Experience first-hand and learn about the remarkable evolution of Copenhagen into a cycling metropolis of the 21st century through micro-consulting, presentations or specialized onsite tours. These immersive journeys offer a comprehensive insight into the meticulous planning, innovative design, and strategic implementation that have established Copenhagen as an international benchmark in urban cycling infrastructure. While showcasing the city’s triumphs, the tours maintain a balanced narrative by also addressing the challenges encountered and mistakes made along the way. Open to policymakers, urban planners, and cycling aficionados alike, come embark on an expedition to witness the advantages of cycling-centric urban development and the creation of environments where people take precedence over vehicles.
As an experienced urban planning specialist with a passion for cycling advocacy, I offer nuanced insights to those seeking to elevate cycling and adopt human-centric urban designs. Leveraging my in-depth experience, I deliver strategic advice to improving cityscapes, emphasizing sustainable transport solutions, and fostering the well-being of residents.
Being a political consultant and project manager for the Danish Cyclists’ Federation constitutes my main occupation, while I engage in 21st Century City as a part-time pursuit. I love my day job, which is why I only offer (limited) presentations, tours and micro-consulting in order to keep a healthy work-life balance.
9 Years of Experience
I possess over nine years of professional experience as a strategic urban planner at Copenhagen City Hall (4 years), in addition to serving as a political consultant for the Danish Cyclists’ Federation (5 years) and the Cycling Embassy of Denmark.
I’ve conducted numerous presentations and cycling tours across Copenhagen, captivating a diverse range of groups from professional circles to media teams, journalists, and students.
I provide presentations and guided tours in Scandinavian, English, and German and micro-consultancy in Scandinavian and English.
