About Me

Hello, 

I'm Nellie de Goguel, a sustainability specialist and award-winning content producer, writer, editor, and occasional panellist / public speaker / moderator.  I'm currently an Executive Producer at the Financial Times. 

My subject expertise include sustainability, climate, ESG, just transition, oceans and the blue economy, cities, food, film and tv, and cannabis (to name just a few). 

I started my career as head writer for PerezHilton.com and have since... 

Throughout that time I earned an MSc in Sustainable Development from Trinity College Dublin, was communications chair for the Rhode Island Food Policy Council, won three RI Press Association Awards, wrote for POLITICO, The Economist, The FInancial Times, the Wine Society and others, and moonlighted as a bartender. 

On a more personal note, I live in Worthing with my wolf-dog Basil and serve as the Communications Officer for the local Green Party. 

“While I live I hope.”
