Keynotes
I bring a fresh perspective to the keynote stage, combining deep expertise in neuroinclusive coaching and leadership with an open, relatable style that connects with audiences.
Known for my willingness to share personal experiences with honesty and vulnerability, I invite listeners to engage with the content on a deeper level, challenging them to rethink conventional approaches to leadership, inclusion, and team dynamics.
As a speaker, I’m told I’m relatable, a little bit funny, and inspiring. My goal is to connect with people on a personal level, using stories and insights that highlight the strengths and resilience of neurodivergent individuals in ways that feel both authentic and empowering. I talk about creating environments where neurodivergent minds aren’t just accommodated but genuinely valued—a change that leads to innovation, resilience, and a culture where all talents thrive.
With a focus on bridging the gap between neurotypical and neurodivergent perspectives, I help leaders, Boards, and teams see the value in inclusive practices and the potential they can unlock. If you’re looking for a speaker who brings depth, humour, and an open-hearted message about the future of work and leadership, let’s talk about creating a keynote that will resonate long after the event.
