Speaking

I regularly speak at events in the US, abroad, and on Zoom. My audience tends to be architects, developers, workplace specialists, and academics.

Speaking topics include:

  • The future of work
  • The workplace after the pandemic
  • The future of architecture and the profession
  • Trends in design technology
  • Any topic I’ve written about recently

If you’d like me to speak at your event, please send me an email.

Please note, in an effort to push conferences to be more inclusive and welcoming, I do not speak on all-male panels or at events where the lineup of speakers lacks diversity. I’m more than happy to recommend people with different backgrounds and perspectives that you could invite instead of me.
