My Work

My work spans research, writing, advising, and public speaking. I want to redesign work to serve people rather than consume them.

Speaking

I speak at conferences, corporate events, and academic forums worldwide — on the future of work, automation, and the case for a shorter working week. Every talk is tailored to the audience and moment.
