Book Me for Your Event

See me in action

My TEDx talk leverages personal stories, humor and actionable insights to help us find balance and perspective in our daily lives.

Events are great, right? But what if:

The speaker doesn’t resonate with the audience?

There’s no emcee to cover for any unexpected moments?

No one leaves inspired and ready to do things differently?

That's where I come in.

As a retired Air Force colonel, I bring my blend of leadership, strategic insight and engagement to every presentation so audiences leave educated, entertained and equipped to act.

I'm building a paradigm shift in the way we use humor, leveraging its power to create change ... in our perspective, our life or our mood.

Humor brings people together -- for the moment of the chuckle and the length of the shared-laugh memory.

We all deserve to laugh, learn and think (in that order).

an· ec· dote· ist

An anecdote is a brief, amusing tale "with a point" relating to an interesting event, servicing to make the listeners laugh or ponder over a topic.
