For over 20 years, I have spoken publicly, facilitated workshops, guest lectured, and contributed to conversations across community, academic, clinical, and policy settings.

​

My work has focused on topics including human rights, social policy, sex work policy in Canada, drug policy and the impacts of the drug war, overdose prevention, harm reduction, mental health, trauma, sexuality, and systems impacting marginalized communities.

​

Over the years, I have been invited to participate in panels, conferences, podcasts, university lectures, and policy discussions alongside educators, policymakers, politicians, community leaders, and advocates. My perspective is rooted in both lived experience and professional expertise, allowing me to speak to these issues in a way that is nuanced, embodied, and deeply informed.

​

While I continue to engage in speaking, consulting, podcast conversations, and guest lectures, I do so more intentionally now—aligning myself with spaces, conversations, and collaborations that feel meaningful, values-aligned, and impactful.

​

At the same time, I remain deeply committed to community-rooted and grassroots work. Whether I am speaking at a university, contributing to a local podcast, facilitating a community workshop, or participating in policy discussions, what matters most to me is authenticity, connection, and the potential for meaningful dialogue and change.

​

My work is grounded in critical conversation, accessibility, and creating spaces that move beyond performance and toward deeper understanding, reflection, and collective care.
