SPEAKING & CONVERSATIONS
I talk about the things I can’t stop thinking about.
Technology. Creativity. Work. Identity. Family. Voice. The strange things humans build — and what all of it is doing to us.
I speak from the intersection of having made music, built companies, raised a family, worked across technology and spent an unreasonable amount of time wondering how we keep people human while everything around us accelerates.
WHAT I SPEAK ABOUT
Questions worth staying with.
HUMAN AFTER ALL
AI, identity and what remains uniquely ours
AI can imitate more of us by the day. This conversation asks what identity means when voice, likeness and memory can be reproduced — and where technology should know when to stop.
- Identity in an AI-shaped world
- Voice, likeness and consent
- Memory and digital continuity
- What technology should preserve — and what it should leave alone
THE FUTURE OF WORK IS STILL ABOUT PEOPLE
What happens when the systems meant to help us start running us instead
Built from years spent inside companies and the systems around them: a conversation about fragmented work, organizational memory, trust and building around human beings rather than software.
- Technology and fragmented work
- Organizational memory
- Trust
- Communication
MAKING THINGS IN THE AGE OF AI
Creativity, authorship and protecting the thread of an idea
Songwriting and building creative tools have taught me that assistance and replacement are not the same thing. This is about authorship, voice, creative identity and keeping hold of the idea while the tools change.
- Songwriting and storytelling
- AI-assisted creativity
- Authorship and voice
- What machines can help with — and what they should not replace
FAMILY, BELONGING & THE THINGS WE KEEP
Why connection becomes more important as everything becomes more digital
A personal look at family systems, memory, estrangement, repair, belonging and the small acts that help several generations remain connected without turning family life into content.
- Family systems
- Memory
- Estrangement and repair
- Multigenerational connection
HOW I LIKE TO SPEAK
Not particularly interested in standing behind a lectern.
I like conversations that feel alive — rooms where people are allowed to think out loud, disagree politely, ask awkward questions and leave with something they are still thinking about the next morning.
That might mean a keynote. It might be an interview, a fireside conversation, a workshop or a room full of founders trying to make sense of what comes next.

- Conferences
- Universities
- Founder communities
- Creative-industry events
- Technology organizations
- Podcasts / media
