Speaking & Events

My public speaking experience ranges from academic presentations and trainings to closed-door presentations for leading think-tanks and US government agencies.

The subjects I’ve covered range from cross-cultural communications, Byzantine philosophy, Irish literature and travel writing to Balkan politics, Mediterranean migration crises, terrorism and organized crime. Probably, this variety of public speaking at the level I’ve attained is uncommon.

These speeches have been both virtual and (largely) in-person, taking me to a range of countries. I enjoy the opportunity to share my research and hear the views of experts in their fields as well. It isn’t necessary to list the events at which I’ve spoken since 2008, except to say that it has I will always treasure the exciting and varied experiences from which I’ve doubtless learned more than I could have hoped to offer.
