KEYNOTE SPEAKING & EMCEEING


Public speaking has always been a passion of mine. The comment on the left is from an attendee at a recent conference where I was a keynote speaker. I love sharing my knowledge with others and collaborating with Recruiters from agencies or internal teams.

I have been fortunate to have been invited to present at several local and international conferences. I am a keen traveller and delivered Keynote Presentations in Johannesburg, London, Sydney, Cape Town and Seattle in 2022. I am delivering a Keynote Presentation for Sourcing Summit in Amsterdam in October 2023.
