Recent Speaking Engagements
Host & Moderator: Hourglass Cosmetics Equilibrium Launch
I hosted the launch of Hourglass’s Equilibrium Skincare line, interviewing celebrity facialist Ivan Pol, taking questions from beauty editors and influencers at the Equinox Hotel in New York City.
Host & Moderator: Kiehl's Acne-Clearing Solution Launch
I hosted & moderated an event at Nine Orchard with Dr. Michelle Henry and Kiehl’s General Manager, Ramzy Burns for their biggest launch of the year: the Truly Targeted Acne-Clearing Solution. It is an invisible “liquid patch” spot treatment that creates a breathable seal to calm pimple color, reduce pimple size and visibly correct marks. Further, I created content about the product that tied into the event and launched the same week.
Host & Moderator: Zo Skin Health SPF Launch
I hosted the launch of Zo Skin Health Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 50’s, interviewing Dr. Jeanine Downie among a group of top-tier media and influencers. I hosted a fireside chat, debuted new products, and moderated an interactive Q&A panel discussing the importance of protecting our skin and how important SPF is.
Panelist: Advertising Week
I spoke on the Media Metamorphosis: Authenticity, Voice, and the Experiential Edge panel in the Equality Lounge at Advertising Week. The panel focused on what brands can do to stand out in a world saturated with digital noise, touching on consumers craving authentic connection, why leveraging storytelling is critical, and how to humanize your brand.
Panelist: Fohr U
I spoke on the Fohr U: Beauty Predictions For 2025 panel at the Fohr offices, a leading NYC-based influencer marketing agency. I predicted that fragrance would be bigger than skincare, beauty consumers will value accountability more than ever, beauty products will be the new accessories, and that overconsumption is over. All turned out to be right, some more than others!
