Public speaking is a skill few enjoy—and even fewer master. I thrive on the challenge of engaging an audience and unpacking the intersection of technology, politics, policy, and human connection. Theatrically trained, I regularly speak across international, domestic, nonprofit, creative, and academic audiences as a keynote, panelist, and moderator.
