Hi, you found me
If you’re a speaker bureau agent or an event planner, this page is for you. I’m glad to work with bureaus, and I answer fast. Everything you need to pitch me is below: photos, a bio, my talks, and my links. If you need something that isn’t here, ask me and I’ll send it.
What I speak about
I have two talks. “Ready for More” is my main keynote on self-leadership. “Be the Manager People Won’t Leave” comes as a keynote or a workshop. I also emcee events and join panels, in person or virtually. The speaking page has the details and my sizzle reel. Contact me for fees. My fee is commissionable for bureaus.
