Signature Talk 01:
Stepping into Creative Education
I believe that industries and communities thrive when people are willing to share their knowledge and help others grow!
I believe in delivering education in a way that empowers those listening. The lecture mindset can leave people feeling isolated or deflated, but delivering actionable education doesn't have to make an audience feel overwhelmed! I meet my audience where they are, and work to empower and equip them with the tools they need to move forward with confidence.
i'm about ACTIONABLE EDUCATION MIXED WITH A DOSE OF HUMOR AND HEART

What to Expect
I'm an open book.
I'm open and transparent about my experiences: I don't hold back from sharing my own mistakes or getting vulnerable while on the stage. I tell it like it is, with the hope that truth and honesty will allow others to learn from my experience and walk away feeling equipped and inspired.
I might break out my Teacher Voice
Just kidding! Well, kind of... I spent seven years as a high school teacher. If a room full of high school kids teaches you anything, it's how to keep an audience engaged. I'm confident in presenting to a room full of people, and I have plenty of expertise designing a classroom experience. (Plus, I love providing handouts and worksheets for tangible takeaways!)
So, here's the thing...
Sometimes I dish out a little bit of tough love. Don't worry, I always deliver it with kindness and humor! But I'm a believer in telling people the truth they need to hear. I believe that even tough truths can be delivered with both honesty and kindness... and we can all walk away better for it.
