Tristan Katz

WRITER, FACILITATOR, & STRATEGIST working in marketing and social change

I’m a nationally recognized speaker, facilitator, and consultant supporting individuals, teams, and organizations in growing their work with care.

With a foundation in intersectional, anti-oppression practice and a trauma-informed lens, I help people move from intention to action—through strategic consulting, equity-centered education, and transformative conversations that meet the moment.

Whether I’m delivering a keynote, facilitating a workshop, or supporting a leadership team behind the scenes, my work centers relationship over performance, strategy with integrity, and values embodied—not just stated.

NOT SURE WHERE TO BEGIN?

You don’t need to have it all figured out before reaching out. Many people come to this work with a tangle of questions: about visibility, sustainability, messaging, pricing, identity, audience, capacity, or how to keep showing up when the world feels heavy.

We can begin wherever you are.
