Book Heather as your

Keynote Speaker

Hi, I’m Heather. I help organizations move from stagnation to innovation through the power of creativity.

Creativity is one of the top skills needed in business today, but it doesn't happen by accident. It requires intentional leadership, psychological safety, and a culture where head, heart, and hands work together.

As an organizational psychologist, professional artist, and a leadership expert, I bring a rare integration of research, art, and industry insight to the stage. My keynotes aren't lectures; they're experiences. Through live speed paintings I deliver a visceral performance of the creative process and demonstrate what’s possible when we unleash human creativity.

I understand the unique pressures you face because I've walked in your shoes. I know the staffing shortages, the burnout, the constant pressure to do more with less. Through my research-backed, experiential approach I equip you with practical tools to transform culture, reduce burnout, and unlock the creativity already living in your team.
