WE ARE THE MAKERS OF DREAMS COME TRUE.

I love this industry and the people who are called to work in it.

Education is the key to elevating both individuals and organizations.

By bringing our community together in a common space and sharing stories, we inspire each other to think about the world in new ways.

As a speaker, education and inspiration are delivered in a conversational, tongue-in-cheek way. I aim to engage audiences with anecdotes and actionable tasks, giving them permission to build the businesses of their dreams. When I stage I deploy storytelling techniques, utter honestly, and vulnerability to break down cerebral business principles and apply them practical manner.

Your organization can choose from one of my existing presentations or I will work to develop new education for your attendees.

Both half and full-day in-person seminars are also available.
