Interests & speaking style
I prefer a collaborative, workshop-style engagement versus a traditional lecture. My style is informal, provocative, and exploratory. My primary goal is to create an environment where participants feel comfortable questioning assumptions, challenging boundaries, and leave the session excited to explore their curiosity in a particular topic or question even further.
