My work lives at the intersection where experience, audience, conversation, and strategy connect. Sometimes that means helping an organization rethink how people engage. Sometimes it means facilitating the conversation. Sometimes it means stepping onto the stage.

Speaking

I speak and facilitate on the intersection of experience design, hospitality strategy, and purposeful convening.

Whether you need a keynote that reframes how your audience thinks about event design or a workshop that builds practical convening skills, I design sessions that are outcome-led, not just content-heavy.

Topics include: Experience Design as Strategy · Hospitality as Competitive Advantage · Designing for Impact, Not Just Attendance · Decision Clarity

Work

Through KĀK & Co., LLC, I partner with nonprofits, foundations, and purpose-driven organizations to design events and convenings that deliver on mission — not just logistics. Our approach is audience-first, outcome-led, and execution-ready. If your organization wants to convene better, we'd like to help.

Let’s Get Creative

I’m open to thoughtful collaborations involving hospitality, travel, spirits, experiences, research, content, and community when there is a genuine connection to the world I’m building. That might mean a hosted experience, editorial collaboration, brand partnership, research project, or something we haven't named yet.
