Anshu Pandit is an ocean journalist, storyteller and communications specialist focused on the ocean, climate, biodiversity, the blue economy and the communities connected to them.

For more than a decade, she has worked across international newsrooms, environmental storytelling, and digital media, translating complex science, policy, and research into stories that people can actually connect with.

Her work spans marine conservation, the blue economy, ocean exploration, environmental justice, and global climate events. Anshu has always been drawn to where systems meet: ocean and atmosphere, people and planet, science and emotion.

Some of her most meaningful work has happened in the field: swimming alongside whales in open water, documenting coral reefs in Raja Ampat, listening to scientists, fishers, conservationists, and local communities whose lives are deeply tied to the sea.

Today, she works with organizations, brands, nonprofits, researchers, and mission-driven teams to build thoughtful storytelling and communications rooted in impact, clarity, and connection.

A decade of storytelling under deadline.

For over ten years, Anshu produced international news for CGTN America, Sky News, SBS World News, and ABC Australia, covering everything from breaking news to UN Climate Summits, APEC, and the UN Ocean Conference.

That newsroom discipline (editorial rigor, speed, and accuracy under pressure) is the foundation she brings to every project.

Now, her storytelling remains grounded in journalism, but focuses on impact, because the planet deserves more than a 90-second news package.
