Meet Jake Southerland
Jake Southerland is a recent American MA graduate in International Relations from Leiden University. While currently navigating the job market, he is also contributing to two geopolitical startups: Geopol Report and the British Institute of Global Affairs, where he authors in-depth reports on European security and Nordic geopolitics.
Jake is eager to take his first step toward building a career in the Nordic region, whether in research, media analysis, or as a geopolitical analyst. He’s had the chance to explore Oslo, Helsinki, and Reykjavik enjoying local delicacies such as Brunost, korvapuusti, and skyr, but hasn’t yet visited Stockholm or Copenhagen, two cities he’s heard nothing but great things about.
Feel free to download his CV using the link featured on the welcome page or reach out to him via email at Jtsouth2000@gmail.com. If you’re Danish, Norwegian, or Swedish, he'd love to learn more about the languages and cultures!

As a geopolitical analyst and journalist, I believe it's essential to be multilingual, as it enables me to connect personally with individuals from around the world and access a broader range of sources that would otherwise be inaccessible due to language barriers.
