Speaking & Engagements

Sharing ideas that challenge convention and inspire better products, leadership, and innovation.

Over the past decade, I've been invited to speak at international conferences, panels, and learning communities focused on design, innovation, and leadership. My talks explore how design and product connects creativity with measurable impact, from fostering team culture, to redefining the R.O.I of design.


Upon request, I deliver talks and keynotes to audiences ranging from 10 to 3,000 - covering topics such as UX & Product Design, AI for Design and Product, Data-Driven Decision-Making, Product Strategy, and Executive Leadership.
