Hello! 

I'm Nellie de Goguel, a content creator, writer, editor, interviewer, comms expert, systems thinker, and occasional panellist / public speaker / moderator. 

I try to make sense of the world through words, data visuals, imagery, and other creative formats — anything that clarifies the chaos and connects with a desired audience.  

My subject specialties 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... 

• worked as digital manager and columnist for Providence Media;
• supported the City of Providence's Climate Justice Plan as Sustainability Strategy Manager;
• formed the sustainability, partnerships, and comms strategy as Director of Sustainability for a green travel startup;
• led the editorial launch of Economist Impact's "The; Sustainability Project";
• managed editorial for "The Sustainability Project" and Economist Impact's World Ocean Initiative. 

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, and moonlighted as a bartender. 

Now I'm venturing into the exctingly unstable world of freelance and am here for your writing/editing/content production/comms needs. I regularly work with FT's Alpha Grid, Economist Impact, Business Fights Poverty, and others, and am a weekly contributor to Cannabis Health News. 

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. 

Let's work together! 🤓💚
