Biography

My command of an audience started in my backyard with a run away pony and some neighborhood kids learning to ride. Everyone was captivated, except for my pony. Fortunately, he would stop for treats.  The hallmark of my Speaking is that I have always been an innovative teacher who creates experiences for any size group (with or without a pony). My communication cocktail combines a shot of curiosity, two splashes of humor and a big  dash of enthusiasm. 

My passion has always been about helping people recognize their potential and using it. I study people, nature, the sky, patterns, history, psychology, science, and constantly seek to learn how all these experiences shape how we interact with each other. This obsession provides an unusual platform to discover new pathways to growth, change, and innovation. 

 

On top of that, I have credentials that have supported my learning, but I was going to do it anyway! Bachelors of Communication, Masters of Communication, Gallup Certified Strengths Coach...still practicing..painting, photography, writing, film making, cooking, traveling, marriage with my amazing husband, Kirk, coexisting with too many animals (I could never give up

It takes a Team To Do Great Things

Teams that don't work with their teams’ talent, don't win. Recognizing and developing talents in employees has been proven to increase productivity and profitability.   As individuals learn about their talents, they value themselves more, and in turn recognize the value of  differences in coworkers. Learning about strengths provides excellent communication tools that are appealing to everyone because they focus on what is right about you, and help people understand their weaknesses. A team mindset is the best way to cultivate productivity and a positive work environment which  have a great impact on your business.
