Own You Misfit: How to Differentiate Yourself in the Age of AI (Keynote)
AI is great for efficiency, but it makes us all sound the same. These days, everyone's content, communication style, and personal brand looks identical. In a world where AI is turning us vanilla, your "misfit quotient" is your currency. Leaning into what makes you different can become your biggest superpower. But how do you do it? Nammy Sirur felt like a misfit all her life. As an accented immigrant, or a creative among STEM folks, she stuck out like a sore thumb in most rooms ... until she learned how to stand out in a good way. Corporate misfit-turned YouTuber & professional speaker, Nammy shares heart-warming stories and actionable tips to help the audience tap into their own "misfit quotient" and turn them into their superpowers. She also teaches you how to use AI to amplify, not mute your differentiators. This keynote inspires, educates, and entertains. Audiences come away feeling empowered to start leading with authenticity. (Keynote can be adapted to anywhere from 20-60 mins, and in-person, virtual, or hybrid)

Immigrant and first-gen professionals are often the most skilled people in the room but the least visible. This workshop changes that. We build personal brands that are authentic, powerful, and impossible to overlook. In this 60–90 minute interactive session, participants will: - Unlearn the cultural scripts that keep talented professionals invisible - Identify and articulate their unique value - Build a visibility strategy, both online (LinkedIn, thought leadership) and IRL (how you show up in rooms, conversations, and high-stakes moments) that feels authentic, not performative Participants will walk away with a personal brand statement they can actually use. Designed for immigrant professionals, first-gen leaders, and multicultural ERGs who are ready to stop being the best-kept secret in the building.
3D Storytelling: The Blueprint For Unforgettable Storytelling
Storytelling is a non-negotiable skill to master, whether at town halls, in pitches, on panels, or at networking events. Most just don't know how to do it well. In this hands-on workshop, storytelling event producer, Nammy Sirur, teaches her signature "3D Storytelling" formula -- a repeatable 3-part framework (Design, Details, Drama) that turns rambling anecdotes into stories that land with impact. No theory, no fluff: every participant leaves having built and told a story live, using the method. Book this if you want your next event remembered for the stories in the room, not just the slides. Can be adapted to a 60-minute, 90-minute, half-day, in-person, or virtual formats. Nammy's storytelling experience: Nammy Sirur is the creator and producer of Accent Unmuted, a storytelling event series, featuring immigrants with accents telling stories to a live audience and on the radio (Austin's NPR station).
