I Don’t Just Speak — I Spark Something

To me, speaking isn’t performance. It’s presence. It’s standing in your truth and giving others the courage to do the same. When I’m on stage, I’m not here to impress — I’m here to connect, challenge, and move.

These Are Conversations That Matter to Me

I don’t give templated talks. I build real conversations rooted in story, strategy, and soul. Here are themes I’ve spoken on — and would love to bring to your community too.

Bold Leadership in the Workplace

I speak on what it means to lead with integrity and humanity — especially as someone who doesn't always fit the mold. It's about showing up fully, even when it's uncomfortable.

Let's Talk

International Student Resilience

From rejection emails to visa struggles, I know this path intimately. I share honest stories and practical tools to help students navigate life abroad with courage and clarity.

Let's Talk

Storytelling as Strategy

I unpack how storytelling isn’t fluff — it’s influence. I teach how to use personal truth to build brands, movements, and trust that actually lasts.

Let's Talk

Building Movements Through Community

I explore how community isn’t just a buzzword — it’s the foundation of real change. I break down what it takes to build, grow, and sustain one authentically.

Let's Talk

Branding with Soul

People connect with people — not polish. I share how to build brands rooted in values, identity, and bold emotion, not just market trends.

Let's Talk

DE&I That Doesn’t Feel Performative

I speak to what real inclusion looks like, and how to create spaces where people don’t just feel seen — they feel safe, respected, and heard.
