I love thought-provoking conversations - having them, hearing them, and hosting them.
Whether as a panel moderator, salon host, keynote speaker or guest lecturer, I strive to balance being a compelling speaker and curious listener.
I’ve spoken at organizations including Accenture, Google, and WPP, and at conferences such as Critical Eye, the Modern Marketing Association, and Social Media Week. As a humanist and a storyteller, for me the best presentations are rooted in narrative and brought to life through real examples and practical advice.
Teaching is one way I give back (and stay plugged in!) and so I regularly guest lecture at academic institutions like the University of the Arts London, the Kellogg School or Management, and the University of Birmingham. My lectures have ranged from ‘practical’ topics such as retail futures, customer insights, and brand experience design, to mentorship and more general advice on navigating a contemporary career path in the agency and consulting industries.
