Speaking and Media
Helping developers, enterprises, and communities navigate emerging tech.
I speak regularly at conferences, webinars, and community events about open source strategy, secure AI adoption, and developer experience. My goal is to make complex topics accessible and actionable whether you're building enterprise AI infrastructure or launching your first open source project.
