Currently based in the coolest capital in the world, and work internationally. Yes, DK is my (legal) name. Just a D and a K.

Diva speaking / masterclass requirements:
Don’t do panels / speak for free (unless it’s a wholly run volunteer initiative) / participate in events with no gender / cultural balance.
– Presentations / masterclasses are delivered via Keynote (I can bring MacBook and have a HDMI converter plus bluetooth clicker), just need a high fidelity projector in dark room (or capability to control the lighting as to not ‘wash-out’ the presentation) or large screen TV with speakers (as there will be video clips shown).
– A lapel mic is preferred (if a big room / lots of humans) or hand held mic, as don’t do lecterns.
– Am gluten / dairy / (processed) sugar / (hot) spice free.
Thanks and appreciate your time on this, happy to chat to provide clarity.
