Events & Panels

I’ve been invited to speak at festivals and events that explore reinvention, desire, visibility, emotional inheritance, grief, and the stories we carry across a lifetime.

What draws me most are conversations about the deeper threads that shape us — longing, visibility, desire, emotional inheritance, grief, courage, reinvention, and the quiet stories that live beneath the surface.

If your event or festival explores these kinds of questions, I’d love to join you.
