Presentations

I love turning complex ideas about people, relationships, and social systems into conversations that are engaging, accessible, and useful. I’m available for keynotes, conference presentations, panels, workshops, professional trainings, classrooms, community events, and facilitated conversations.

My previous presentations and trainings have explored themes including LGBTQIA+ relationships and families, queer identity and joy, mixed-orientation relationships, gender-affirming care, ethical and affirming professional practice, conflict and connection, and supporting diverse relationship structures. I’m especially excited about opportunities that bring together social science, lived experience, and big questions about how we understand and care for one another.
