Speaking

Over the years, I have spoken to dozens of audiences at venues ranging from large industry conferences to leadership offsites to teen workshops.

I like to mix stories and demos, and my aim is to inspire bolder thinking and offer practical tools that anyone can use.

“Your presentation gave many of them new thoughts! That is the best start for new actions.”
