Me as Speaker...
As someone who has organized and facilitated all kinds of events, I know how important it is to find the right speaker. It is my hope that the information I provide on this page will help you to determine whether or not I would be a good fit for your event.
Here, I will share with you information about me as a speaker, what you can expect from me, some of my regular speaking topics, and how you can check my availability. I will also tell you about other services that I offer.
I have been speaking publicly for over ten years on a variety of topics and for a range of audiences. I have had extensive experience with designing and delivering presentations and using different approaches - speaking to live audiences, media interviews, interactive seminars, lectures, and online training.
I am a Christian, and my faith is central to my worldview. However, I tailor my knowledge and style to suit the needs of each client. I have spoken for a variety of audiences, including businesses, conferences, churches, schools, and non-profit organizations. My speaking topics focus on areas such as professional excellence, professional presentation and writing skills, and effective leadership.
