I have years of experience speaking at events and conferences, typically on my core themes of design and product strategy. I've introduced new audiences to the world of user-centred design, shared the highs and lows of building digital products with peers and opened up new conversations about novel technologies and domains. Have a look below to see upcoming talks as well as videos and slides from previous events.
