My TEDx:
Why Optimism and Creativity (Not Doom) Will Save the Planet 

 I give keynote talks on how to use the power of creativity, optimism, and vision to build a better world. I recently gave my signature talk "Why Optimism and Creativity (Not Doom) Will Save the Planet" for TEDx San Luis Obispo at the Center for the Performing Arts at California Polytechnic University.  
 Katie's Speaking Resume
An audience who are left dripping with inspiration, creativity, and ideas?

You're in the right place.


I'm an experienced public speaker on the psychology and design of environmental change. I give talks that audiences love on the juicy parts of behavior change and gamification techniques that are being used to save the earth, with a core theme of igniting creativity and innovation.

I've given my keynote address to major organizations around the world including UNEP, Google, NASA, the European Commission, US Department of State, and Stanford University.


It's my passion to take behavioral psychology research and environmental data and use it to develop bright, positive, and fun concepts that help save the planet, and make it a bit like a game.
