Speaking & Press
I've spent over a decade talking about the things people are usually told not to bring up at dinner:
sex, loss, mental health, ghosting, desire, consent, rejection, what technology is doing to how we connect, and more. I'm available to bring that conversation to your stage, classroom, or newsroom.
Speaking
I speak on relationships, sexuality, intimacy, and the gap between what people know intellectually and what they can actually do under pressure. My talks are built for audiences who want depth, not a simplified version of nuance: clinicians, educators, conference attendees, podcast listeners, and organizations rethinking how they talk about relationships and sex. I've spent over a decade speaking on sexuality, technology, and relationships for audiences ranging from clinicians in continuing education rooms to college students at sex-ed bootcamps to global academic conferences. A sample of past topics:
Using ChatGPT and AI in relationships, and what it changes about how people connect
Sexting, technology, and the clinical realities behind the headlines
Online dating, swiping culture, and the actual risks worth naming
Healthy sexuality education as sexual violence prevention
Social media's impact on individuals and relationships
Consent, bystander intervention, and campus-based prevention work
Where architecture and the erotic intersect, (not as strange of a pairing as it sounds)
I've presented for NASW-NJ, the National Sex Ed Conference, Rutgers University, Widener University, Moravian College, and international academic gatherings in Prague, Vienna, Palermo, and Oxford, among others. A full list of invited workshops and conference presentations is available on request or in my CV.
I'm available for keynotes, panels, workshops, podcast interviews, and continuing education trainings for clinicians. If you have a specific topic or audience in mind, I'm happy to tailor a talk to it.

Press
I'm a resource for journalists and producers covering relationships, sex, dating, and modern intimacy, especially stories that want a clinician's read rather than a quote pulled out of context. I've been featured on local and national television and quoted in digital and print outlets on topics from sexting to snooping to crying during sex. I respond quickly and I'm comfortable with both deadline turnarounds and longer-form interviews.
