I speak on topics including graphic design, career and life advice for creatives, and writing.

In recent years I've spoken to design students, given rapid-fire PechaKucha style presentations, and talked at events including Creative Mornings, Lifetime Value Conference and Bike V De sign at the V&A in London.

Just like my blog, my talks aim to be honest, thought-provoking, and full of actionable tips.

Please get in touch to discuss your event or conference.

I think this is the best piece of writing advice I've ever heard. Think of a question you're often asked and answer it. @j_greig #smallisb
