“Enriching Our Global Community With One Keynote & Workshop Presentation at a Time”
Engaging, Entertaining, Enlightening!
Engaging
My life's journey has prepared me to be an experiential new voice for conscious living. My successes as a young COO at 33 years old, as well as my roles as president and chairman of various community organizations, were the result of my ability to engage people by drawing the best out of them.
Entertaining
Storytelling is my inspiring style. I am at my best when I share my life experiences, both the good, the bad, and the ugly. Audiences find my light-hearted and energizing presentation extremely entertaining as it engages them to resonate with real-life situations in their life’s journey!
Enlightening
Enlightenment occurs when the audience realizes how easy it is to transform themselves. This empowering awareness ushers in a new can-do attitude that leads them to living and performing in their sweet spot of life, their “Genius Zone,” and experience success, harmony, and JOY!
Proprietary Keynotes and Workshops Presentations with transformative messages on Resilience Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Purpose Driven Culture, Storytelling, Multi-Generational and Multi-Cultural Team Building, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
