An energetic, heartfelt keynote speaker to inspire, educate and empower your people to get creative!

Creativity is about connection

When I watch a brilliant speaker on stage, I feel like the world doesn’t exist outside of that room. I feel like there’s nowhere else to be and they get me. I feel connected, not just to the topic at hand, but to the speaker – I feel seen

As an energetic and heartfelt key note speaker, this is what I do best. I help people feel seen. 

Whether it’s in person in front of a crowd, online amidst screens or one-on-one for a podcast, I create an environment where attendees feel safe enough to open up, share their experiences and be vulnerable… because creativity requires us to do so.  

I bring more than 5 years of experience in running workshops, masterclasses and teaching in various online group coaching programs to my role as your keynote speaker. 

From artists and designers, to corporate teams and small business owners, I’m known for not shying away from the big questions. I love presenting to people from all different walks of life all united by one thing: creativity.

If you’ve got an event coming up and you’d like to add some inspiration and creativity into the mix, let’s start a conversation.
