What’s your need?

A Skilled Speaker for your event? 

To uplevel your own speaking?

Speaking

Professional Speaker

I started speaking competitively as a college student.  As a college professor, I have always felt at home in front of an audience.  I have led workshops both in person and online and have spoken internationally on several occasions.

But speaking is not about me, it’s about the audience I speak to.  I love the opportunity to get to know the needs and tailor a message to meet the needs.

Below, to the right, is a speaker’s abstract that gives you an idea of my areas of expertise and one of my most requested topics: “Own Your Voice: Transform Communication and Elevate Your Impact”. And, to the right is my TEDx talk! This will give you a taste of my style and ability. Enjoy and reach out (contact info below).

Trainer

Whether you are a well-practiced speaker looking to uplevel or you wrestle with deep fear and phobias about Public Speaking, I can help.  I have wrestled with my own demons and know the struggle. I won’t pretend to never be anxious about speaking because, sometimes, I just am. But I am not defined by fear; in fact, I have learned to convert it into energy that fuels a dynamic delivery. I am trained to help.

If you aspire to larger stages (online, a TED stage, global platforms), I believe I can help. I have spoken internationally (England, Poland & Italy).  Perhaps you have put improving your public speaking skills because, well, let’s be blunt: you hate it.  I get it.  But you’ve decided it’s time to confront this–fantastic!  That decision is the hard part…now we can get to the skills.  Call me!
