Ideas in conversation

Speaking & Engagements

My work across law, education, and international business has shaped the conversations I bring to the stage. I speak about the connections between technology, institutions, and the people they serve, informed by a life of global exploration.

Prepare

Before you create

02
What rights and restrictions apply to the content I generate (outputs)?
03
Who owns the footage, text, recordings, images or personal information I upload?

Do the agreements/terms authorize my intended commercial use, distribution, and adaptations?

Produce

While you create

01
Which parts of the work did I personally film, write, compose, select or edit?
02
Which parts were generated by AI, and what contractual or copyright restrictions apply?
03
Am I using another artist for inspiration, or reproducing protected expression?

Present

When you publish what you created

04
Which license, sharing and remixing permissions should I permit?
