I love speaking about the human side of technology, especially where data, bodies, and power intersect. My work sits at the crossroads of FemTech, data privacy, and security-by-design, where sensitive health data meets imperfect systems and real people live with the consequences. I’m particularly interested in how behaviour, culture, and regulation shape the way technology is built and trusted, and how we can design security that protects people without asking them to become experts themselves.

Examples of previous talks / appearances:
FemTech apps are changing the way millions of women track their reproductive health. But beneath these friendly and helpful interfaces lies a complex and often opaque system of data practices. This talk explores the privacy concerns surrounding femtech apps, examining how they collect, store, and at times misuse deeply personal health information. Many of these tools operate outside the scope of medical device regulation and exploit loopholes in data governance, while positioning themselves as harmless lifestyle products.
From a cybersecurity standpoint, the talk examines technical vulnerabilities and regulatory blind spots that make femtech uniquely exposed. It argues for a socio-technical threat model; one that accounts for sensitivity of reproductive health data. Finally, this talk challenges complacency, invites critical conversation, and calls for design and policy changes that return control of intimate data to the user.
