Here's my YouTube channel of public talks and lectures, some of which are highlighted below:

In previous years I've spoken at Science Cafe Wageningen (Oct 2017), several times at Cuba City Elementary, Middle and High Schools (in 2013, 2016 and finally one amazing day in 2018 where I spoke to six separate grades and the Lego Robot Club), and several other schools in Great Britain and the US. I was proud to give two talks at the Ewell Astronomical Society which I went to as a young astronomer, astronomy clubs in Arizona, and I prepared and gave star parties at the Double Check Ranch in Arizona. Other talks include at Pint of Science in Utrecht, May 2019, Astronomy on Tap Edinburgh, June 2019 and Space Lates at the National Science Centre in Leicester in October 2019.

I gave a talk at the Virtual Evenings Under the Stars in September 2021 on “Seeing the shadows of giant ring systems around exoplanets”:

I gave a talk at the Origins Seminar in May 2021 on “Looking for the transits of circumplantary disks”:

An AAVSO Webinar on “Shadows of Circumplanetary Disks: J1407 and J0600” in February 2021:
