Find the right speaker for your next event
I have spent the last two decades working with speakers, presenters and performers to improve the content, clarity and delivery of their messages in order to more authentically move our audiences. I work to de-mystify public speaking, and reveal the simple truth of it: sharing our humanness is what connects us to each other, and may be the only thing that can really change someone's mind. I also host a podcast and blog called This Moved Me about the art of public speaking where I interview world-renown speakers and coaches about how THEY move their audiences - and how we as leaders, creatives, speakers and change-makers can bring more of our voices into the world in an authentic, compelling and creative way. Specialties: Presentation delivery/performance coaching and expertise, program development and delivery, event scripting and development, writing/editing/proofing, sales presentations, message and content development, program and product language branding, verbal communications.

Create, Achieve, Excel. Those are three of my core values. I believe that we create opportunities for ourselves and others by setting goals and objectives that bring value to society. We achieve those goals when we work together, set real and tangible objectives and strive toward success. We excel when we give our best effort at what we do. These values are important at both an individual level and an organizational level. Customers, clients and stake holders deserve the best services and products that we can provide them. Contributors to any team already have the necessary skills. They just need to be planted in an environment where they can grow. I give them the tools they need to succeed.
