If you would like to speak about the possibility of me running a workshop or speaking at an event please get in touch via email: [email protected]. ___WORKSHOPS___ I facilitate tailor made workshops, designed to give participants a variety of discussion opportunities, interactive elements, and a final longer task individually or as part of a group. The goal of my workshops is that participants come out of the them with actionable points to be put into practice afterwards, rather than feeling as if they had simply talked through the same old topics on that subject. ___TALKS & PANELS___ Talks, presentations, panels and Q&As allow for an in depth look at a topic or issue. I can deliver solo talks on a specific topic and/or moderate or sit on group panels. I have previously spoken on topics including: - Building Inclusive Communities - Using YouTube for social good and charitable efforts - LGBTQ+ Representation on TV/Film - LGBTQ+ History - Pop culture and Feminism - Writing Strong Female Characters - Women on YouTube - How to use YouTube/social media as a tool in your career. - & many more.
