I’ve spoken at conferences and with policymakers through my work on cannabis reform. I also enjoy smaller rooms where people can interrupt, challenge an idea, and bring their own experience into the conversation.
What we could talk about
Building in a market that barely exists
Launching Kanavape in 2014, growing Harmony, and spending six years in a legal fight. Product decisions and regulation become very real when your company sits between them. I can share what that looked like from inside.
AI agents and the work around them
What I’m learning from building with AI. Which tasks are worth handing over, where judgment still matters, and how a small team’s way of working changes when software can take action. This talk develops with the work itself.
Ambition, identity, and consciousness
The questions that appeared while I was pursuing professional success, and how ceremony and personal practice changed my relationship with them. A personal account, with room for disagreement.
Music and shared experience
From mixing vinyl at sixteen to facilitating dance as ONIZAL. How a set develops, how people share a room, and what movement can make possible when conversation reaches its limit.
Make it fit the room
A talk, panel, interview, or workshop can each do something different. I’m happy to discuss the format and work in English, French, or Spanish. For music and dance bookings, ONIZAL has more detail.
Tell me about your event: the date, location, audience, topic, and budget if you have one. I’d rather shape the conversation around those people than send you a standard deck.
