    Your event?

    I’m currently available for presentations and workshops in April 2020 and onwards. If your conference already has considerations in place to host a diverse lineup of speakers, send me an email: hello@kennethormandy.com

    If you need a recommendation, we regularly host amazing speakers at Type Brigade. I’d be happy to suggest someone.
