Public Speaking

As a professional public speaker with extensive experience addressing national, regional, and international audiences, I have had the privilege of speaking at major conferences, workshops, and events worldwide.

I have been invited by United Nations agencies, international development organizations, development partners, and civil society groups to deliver keynote speeches, participate in panel discussions, and conduct public lectures at leading universities and academic institutions.

With expertise in speaking, facilitation, and moderation, I offer a dynamic and engaging approach to any event. If you are looking for a professional speaker or workshop facilitator for your upcoming conference or event, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to contributing to your event’s success.
