A Bit About Me
I’ve been an educator since 1999. For the first 10 years, I was a college professor. For the last 15 or so, I’ve been in the private sector, based in New York City. Current & Past Clients include: Franklin Templeton, OneAscent Investments, Apex Group Limited, Johnson & Johnson, American Express, and more.
I teach workshops, coach individuals & teams, and deliver keynotes for your event. My main areas of focus are communication & presentation skills, leadership skills, and Core Skills (what used to be called “Soft Skills”). I also create bespoke content, to keep the learning going beyond the classroom.

“I’ve taught every level of learner at every type of institution across the globe, from JP Morgan to The New York Times to Sony Pictures. One thing has become clear during these sessions and chats: better communication skills equals better business outcomes and better relationships. Period.
My goal with A Speaker Prepares is to make these essential skills more practical, more accessible, and more affordable. ”
