I LOVE TO TALK (BUT ​THAT’S WHY YOU’RE ​HERE)


Do you want to get a handle on what’s ​hot and what’s not in the worlds of ​fashion, luxury, digital twins, esports, ​games and the metaverse? Do you ​need to get your team up to speed in ​gamification and/or UX? Do you want to ​have a little fun with difficult technical ​subjects such as AI or ML? Perhaps you ​simply need an MC or host for your next ​event or podcast?

My most recent talky bits have been at the World Economic Forum in ​Davos, Switzerland and at Accenture in Paris
