Speaking.

Creating understanding. One talk at a time.

Speakers empower, and I do that by inspiring audiences to believe the truth: that the world needs their work. With a special interest in diversity, equity, and inclusion, I'm a speaker with both the business savvy and the willingness to talk about the humanity in each of us.

As a publishing expert who helped create bestsellers, I speak to writers about the book publishing industry and how to get their work into the process.

As a business speaker, I help executives and entrepreneurs understand how publishing a book is good for business, and share with corporate audiences leadership strategies on how to create joy and purpose in the workplace, from the content and publishing executive who's done it.

My feeling-centered talks help women and collegiate audiences overcome the impossible.

Whether it's keynotes, after-dinner talks, author events, book clubs, or popular stand-alone workshops, I'm a sought-after speaker inspiring audiences in-person and via Zoom at Harvard Business School, Book Expo America, Case Western Reserve University, the Great Lakes African American Writers Conference, Jewish Book Council Writers Conference, the Writer’s Digest Annual Conference, and at book stores and libraries across
the nation.

The pandemic years created a different landscape and opened possibilities for us to connect together from disparate locations. I’ve tailored my talks to create the most joyful experience for attendees across all platforms. Whether from a little box on your attendees’ screens via Zoom, Crowdcast, Facebook Live, WebEx, GoToWebinar, Google Meets, or the tech you love (or love-to-hate), I have the ability and experience with live, recorded, hybrid, and studio talks to engage your audience in the format that works best for you.
