At age 28, inspired by many years of working as a freelance journalist covering indigenous movements and ethnic cleansing in South America and Southeast Asia, Jensine (Yen-See Nah) Larsen founded World Pulse, a global media source which covers world issues through women’s eyes. 

Larsen began publishing World Pulse magazine in 2004 with just a vision and no prior publishing experience.  As a young woman who thrived on discussing international affairs, she dreamed of unleashing the creative human potential of women across the globe through the power of media.

Today, with her eye on the future of communications technology in the developing world, Larsen is now building an interactive global media company with a for-profit and non-profit component. She has a dedicated staff, Board of Directors, teams of professional advisors, supporting networks of international women's organizations, women journalists from around the world, and endorsements from international luminaries and visionaries.

Larsen holds a degree in Comparative International Studies from the University of Wisconsin, Madison (1999).  She has appeared on NPR and Air America and her writing has been published in the Thai and U.S. press including:  The Nation (Thailand), The Progressive, The Sojourner and academic journals such as The Bulletin of Concerned Asian Scholars.

Jensine is also a Young Leaders Fellow with the National Committee on United States-China Relations.  She sits on Portland’s Vision Committee, which was established by Mayor Tom Potter to chart the city’s 30-year vision by listening to the visions of its citizens.

With her finger on the pulse of women's and youth voices globally, Jensine is increasingly sought after for inspirational keynotes, current affairs lectures and radio programs.

These are the brave and unstoppable voices that will determine our future.” – Jensine Larsen
