Work With Me
I'm available for speaking engagements, media training, narrative development, and startup coaching and advising. My goal is to help climate tech companies and their leaders find the right story and tell it with confidence whether onstage, to the media, or in a pitch meeting. Together, we can get this done.
Speaking
I frequently moderate panels and fireside chats, and can keynote on topics related to climate solutions and investment, AI, and increasingly, the convergence of data centers and energy demand. Most recently, I gave the opening keynote at Re+, a clean energy innovation conference of some 37,000 attendees in Las Vegas, and served as emcee and moderator for the IEEE Clean Tech summit in Glasgow, Scotland.
Media training
I train founders and executive teams to communicate with clarity and confidence across live interviews, podcast appearances, keynote stages, and investor meetings. Podcasts are my specialty — after all, I’ve been doing it since 2005! I know what makes a guest memorable, what producers are looking for, and how much preparation goes into sounding natural. I work with clients on everything from core talking points to handling tough questions to understanding how different formats each demand a different approach.
Narrative development and storytelling
I help companies develop clear, compelling narratives tailored to the audience that matters most — whether that’s investors, journalists, policymakers, or customers. I’m particularly skilled at translating complex topics and technologies into understandable and relatable stories. This can look like: developing a foundational company narrative from scratch; refining messaging ahead of a fundraise or product launch; shaping the story around a new market entry; or crafting the throughline for a keynote or panel.
When a company needs dedicated PR support or ongoing media relations, I partner with Purpose, a full-service marketing strategy and PR firm, to ensure the narrative work translates into actual coverage and visibility.
Startup coaching and advising
Climate tech companies face a particular challenge: translating deeply technical work into a story that resonates with investors, journalists, and customers — often all at once. I work with founders to build that narrative foundation and then put it to work, whether that means sharpening a pitch deck, developing a media strategy, identifying the right press opportunities, or figuring out when and how to start seeking coverage. I’m especially useful to technical founders who are strong on product but want a thought partner on how to tell their story to the outside world.
