speaking engagements
What do I bring to a talk?
Passion, confidence, experience.
Honesty, reflection, introspection.
No matter the topic, the size of the audience, or the location, an opportunity to connect with people is at the heart of any conversation. One-on-one over coffee, in a small-group setting, or in a large auditorium, the energy is the same, the vibe empowering, and the end result, uplifting.
For the last 25 years, I’ve spoken to audiences of all sizes, ages, and demographic backgrounds on a host of topics, with conversations tailored to the needs of the audience. Lecture style, interactive, or presentational with Q&A, I’m happy to connect in whatever facet is needed and delivery whatever end result is desired.
