Deputy Editor-in-Chief & Podcast Manager
Nicolas’ journey into storytelling began with a deep desire to uncover the hidden narratives that shape our world. Working in ecosystem restoration, he quickly realized that the most powerful tool we have is the ability to share the stories of those who are tirelessly restoring our planet. It was there that he discovered his passion for amplifying the voices and faces behind these important efforts.
His first venture into podcasting was an idea called “Cocktails & Crises”—a concept where guests could untangle today’s most pressing challenges over fine drinks. But he soon realized that storytelling is a collective effort, not a solo pursuit. That’s why Nicolas is thrilled to now be at the Hertie School, surrounded by a fantastic team of podcasting enthusiasts. Together, his team brings you “Behind the Scenes of Policymaking,” where they shine a light on the faces and stories that drive change, distilling lessons from journeys to share with you.
