03 / INFLUENCE

Speaking, Teaching and Workshops

I teach what the work has taught me—and help more people understand how to participate in real estate development and entrepreneurship through speaking, teaching, workshops, and thought leadership.

CONVERSATIONS I BRING TO THE ROOM

Housing and Community Development

  • Everyday people and the housing crisis
  • Small-scale development and community impact
  • Moving from real estate interest to informed action
  • Participation, ownership, and opportunity

For event organizers, institutions, and learning communities. Let’s shape a session around your audience and the conversation you want to advance.

Leveraging the Value of What Already Exists

What if the greatest opportunities aren’t found in creating something new, but in recognizing the potential of what’s already there?

Drawing on adaptive reuse, real estate development, entrepreneurship, and international travel, this speaking topic explores how a fresh perspective can unlock overlooked value in buildings, businesses, communities, and ourselves—and turn existing resources into meaningful opportunities.
