On stage.
Talks
Keynote · Fireside
Purpose-driven entrepreneurship
What building a food-tech startup taught me about mission, money and community, and how to tell whether your purpose is a strategy or a slogan.
Workshop
Telling your 30-year story, one post at a time
A working session on turning a long personal or brand story into a publishing system people actually read.
Keynote · Workshop
Systems that run without you
System planning for small teams: how to name the work, write it down and hand it off, so the organization stops depending on one person's memory.
Keynote · Panel
Swimming with sharks
Working in tech from Silicon Beach to Silicon Valley as a Black man: what the industry rewards, what it misses, and how to build anyway.
Every talk can run as a keynote, a hands-on workshop, a fireside conversation or a moderated panel, in person or online.
