Talks & Conversations

I speak and moderate conversations exploring the relationship between design, wellbeing and the way environments shape how we live.

My talks often bring together perspectives from architecture, interiors and wellbeing, creating space for thoughtful discussion around how design can better support everyday life.

I’ve led conversations for brands including Vitra, Arper, Bolon and Doshi Levien, and have spoken at design events such as Decorex, Surface Design Show and the Workplace Design Show.

I’m available for panel discussions, talks and moderated conversations.
