Advocating for flexible work since 2014.


My talks focus on designing employee experiences, fostering collaboration, building meaningful connections, cultivating thriving culture and developing impactful leadership in distributed teams.




Reach out to invite me as a speaker at a conference, organisation or university. In an effort to minimise the environmental impact of my travels, I prefer giving talks virtually in countries outside of Europe.
