Speaking to engage and enlighten
I engage with decision-makers, educators, and the wider public to convey the transformative power of play, creativity, and learning. I aim to inspire social impact, infusing education with joy and creative thinking, and advocating for a balanced life enriched by the virtues of creativity and play. The engagements featured here span various platforms and forums, to ignite a dialogue about reshaping our approach to education, work, and life itself.
