Public Speaking
I've spoken at events of all sizes, from local meetups to Salesforce's 180,000-attendee Dreamforce conference in San Francisco.
Like my consultancy, I pride myself on my unique perspective: combining my low-level technical expertise with pragmatic leadership and commercial awareness.
Interested in having me speaking at your event?
