SPEAKING

Human-centered storytelling
in a digital-first era, delivered with insight, depth, and heart.

In an increasingly volatile age, identifying a throughline in your life and work can be particularly hard. It doesn’t have to be that way though. 

I’ve spent the past decade sharing my learnings with audiences of big tech companies, small business owners, non-profits, content creators, students, and more. It brings me great joy to meet people where they are and unearth the power of storytelling.

From intimate fireside chats to keynotes with hundreds and thousands of attendees, I bring practical expertise, honesty, and vulnerability that empower people to confidently take their next steps. 

Along with traditional speaking engagements, I’ve had the immense pleasure of also doing panels, fireside chats, workshops, podcasts, and video interviews.

If you are planning an upcoming event, I would love to connect to discuss how I might be a fit for it.
