About
Hi! I'm Jonathan. Actor, Speaker, Coach and we'll get to that in a minute. But first.. and most important, Who Are YOU? What's YOUR story? And what are you looking for in a coach? Right now, you are trying to discern if I am the coach for you. Let me try to help you out. At the end of the day, we both want a match that works for you. Fast Facts: * I'm an actor, a speaker and performer. I'm also a coach. * I have a BA in Theater/Psychology. As I coach, I help people get started and grow their performance skills quickly. Whether you are a total rookie or have some experience.. but not yet a pro, I can help. if you ARE a pro, I can help you clarify your goals and possibly refer you to further resources and coaches who can help you at that level. I am a pastor of 20+ years, an actor and a public speaker. I travel the country doing one actor, multiple character dramas and motivational speaking. I have a passion for creative, outside the box communication that wakes people up and makes them feel it is absolutely necessary for them to listen. I use my love of theater and my love for people to find ways to share truth and possibility. My faith is important to me, but I am also very down to earth and very comfortable working with anyone of any background or creed, young or old, male or female. I have curiosity to know what makes people motivated to help others change.. and to help them communicate clearly to help others experience life change. I would love to work with you... AND.. at the same time, I will shoot straight with you if I realize we are not a strong match.. even after we start collaborating. I won't waste your time, but I will also build into you and attempt to bring about the strongest version of you to help you achieve your speaking goals. As an actor I am big on presentation and the use of non-verbals as well as the spoken word, and you can be assured that I will be authentic and fair in my interactions with you and in the kind but honest feedback I share. If you are not pleased with our partnership at the end of the day... I will hand you your money right back. That's the deal, and I am sticking to it. I hope we get the opportunity to work together.

Jonathan's insights and ability to teach storytelling in speech and presentations are beyond imagination. He has the ability to help us draw the audience into a story where the hearer feels every experience and emotion told. I highly recommend Jonathan as a speaker's coach to any organization or individual that wants to excel on the stage or in a boardroom!
