My presentation and teaching style is all about clarity and simplicity. I aim to “dumb things down” in the best way possible. I love to make complex ideas easy to understand by removing jargon and focus only on the core concepts. My slides and presentation materials are designed with intention: minimal text, clear visuals, and purposeful use of graphics, flowcharts, and tables. I believe that if something is presented well, it should feel intuitive. Not only that, teaching isn't just a way to share what I know, it is also how I deepen and refine my own learning.
Blockchain and digital asset security risk is still not well understood, largely due to the technology’s immaturity and the limited data available. I break down how digital assets and private key management work, how to think about security in this context, and explore practical ways to approach and manage this emerging risk.
Many actuaries today still lack hands-on experience with the rapidly evolving ecosystem of technical tools. I can demonstrate how Python and other open-source libraries can simplify tasks, improve efficiency, and make data work more transparent and repeatable.
Some actuaries today focus heavily on the technical work but often overlook the importance of professional communication and conduct. I break down the ever-changing standards from regulatory bodies and use fictional scenarios to challenge attendees to think critically, helping them better understand and apply the principles of professionalism.
I have delivered numerous presentations to both small groups of actuaries and large industry conferences. This experience has honed my ability to communicate complex topics effectively to diverse audiences. If you are looking for a guest speaker, please reach out.
