The voice for youth program safety.
I speak to the people who decide what kids walk into: school and district leaders, parks and recreation, PTA councils, insurers, funders, conference audiences and the press. Teacher, principal, parent, operator and founder; I bring every one of those seats to the stage.
WHAT I SPEAK ON
Nobody is checking: the safety gap in youth enrichment
Verified once, trusted everywhere: what a shared standard looks like
From principal to platform: what schools miss about the programs they host
Safer and simpler: why safety and operations are the same problem
AI in kids’ programs: what to automate and what never to
What every parent should ask before they enroll
Who invites me
Conference organizers and associations. School and district leaders. Parks, recreation and community education departments. PTA and PTO councils. Insurers and risk pools. Funders and foundations. Education and parenting media. Investors and builders in youth-serving tech. If you decide what kids walk into, or shape how the people who decide think about it, this conversation belongs in your room.
What every room leaves with
Not a scare talk. A clear picture of the problem, a standard people can act on, and the next three moves for their own district, program or portfolio.
A standard they can act on
What a shared, verifiable standard for staff, programs and facilities looks like, and how schools and parks can start asking for it.
The view from every seat
Teacher, principal, parent, operator, researcher and founder. Each seat sees a different part of the problem; I bring all of them.
Safer and simpler
Safety and operations are the same project. When the paperwork runs itself, the adults in the room can focus on the kids.
A clear picture of the gap
Where youth program safety breaks down today, who owns which piece, and why parents assume someone already checked.
Honest talk about AI
Where automation makes kids safer, where a human should never be replaced, and how to tell the difference.
Language that moves boards
How to make safety a budget line instead of a binder, framed for superintendents, councils, insurers and funders.
How I show up
Formats: keynotes, panels and moderated conversations, workshops for program leaders, board and leadership briefings, podcast and media interviews.
Every talk is built for the room. I learn who will be in the seats and what they are deciding, then bring the research, the stories and the practical next steps that fit them.
To book: send the date, the audience and what you want them to leave with through the contact form. Every request comes straight to me.
Press and media
Covering child safety in after-school programs, camps, youth sports or enrichment? I give clear, on-the-record answers from every seat in the room: educator, principal, parent, operator and founder. Send your angle and deadline through the contact form; it comes straight to me.
