Montana is an Associate Manager in Rud Pedersen’s Berlin office and part of the Sustainability & Environment Cluster, which she joined in December 2021. She advises clients on biotechnology, food and agriculture, trade, circular economy, and chemicals. Her current portfolio includes a food wholesaler, multinational food brands, major chemical companies, and seed corporations.

In her day-to-day work, Montana tracks policy developments, delivers clear analyses, and shapes strategies for stakeholder engagement and political events.

Recent projects include supporting a long-term biotechnology campaign for the seed sector and helping to build an industry association tackling illegal chemical trade and advancing circular economy objectives.

Before joining Rud Pedersen, Montana worked as a research associate at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), focusing on international climate negotiations and contributing to academic courses on how political processes shape business environments.
