I have spent my life dedicated to public service and building world class Emergency Management Agencies. This passion for Emergency Management is the basis for my Motivational Speeches. We teach citizens and businesses to “Self Solve” during a disaster so why not in everyday lives. Not everyone thinks about the world like an Emergency Manager does. We have distinct personality traits that allow us to see the world from all angles. This translates into an empowering and motivating outlook.

Technology is a fascinating place to be in today. Amazon is evicerating the distribution world; cars are just about to start driving themselves; 3d objects are being physically printed and the lines between virtual and real are fading. It has never been a more exciting time to be alive! My passion as a technology leader is to constantly be on the lookout for technologies whose application can create competitive advantages for an organization, but even more importantly, creating a culture and infrastructure which can sustain and embrace change. The culture comes from a dedication to learning for myself and my team and the infrastructure comes from working with the best partners, vendors and solutions available. Change today is no longer a period or wave that comes about every 5 years, it's a daily occurrence that makes life fun, exciting and engaging- if you chose to look at it that way. I've coined #growwithchange to reflect the opportunity we have all around us everyday and to inspire courage in others to look and act outside their comfort zones
