With the formal bio out of the way, there are a few other things you should know. I have a way with words and a gift for teaching (and a few degrees & certifications to go along with that). In short, I "heart" all things communication – teaching, speaking, writing, coaching. I also have 20+ years experience in the field of education (teaching, school site administration, higher education administration) where I’ve honed my skills as a presenter, trainer, team builder, and leader launcher. I'm a master facilitator and my absolute joy is when people in my audience experience that "light bulb" moment. I want the people I serve to not just be empowered, but to be better equipped after our time together.
