When you need a keynote address, whether it is a commencement address or a fundraising speech, I’m in. I’ll highlight your organization’s value while charming your audience into smiles and laughter. In a hurry? Contact me now.

Have you heard one of my speeches? If you attended Harvard, UCLA, or Princeton, maybe. If you attended one of the many black tie events using my speeches, then, yes. You saw my client, though, not me.

You might’ve heard that Jerry Seinfeld takes in $200,000 (not a client of mine) for a commencement address. I’m more economical, starting at $5,000 + travel expenses. Public speaking shouldn’t cost as much as new house.

Some of My Topics

Experience

I have written speeches for many of the top business leaders in the United States. My speakers have raised millions of dollars with my speeches and inspired countless people.

I have taught communications and public speakers principles in corporations like W. W. Grainger, Aetna, and Blue Cross, Blue Shield, as well as to numerous private clients.

I have years of experience teaching adult inmates in the McLean County Law and Justice Center, tutored roughly a hundred elementary and high school students, and all ages of students as a substitute teacher. I have taught everything from storytelling to chess to Robert Frost.

“Creativity is more than just being different. Anybody can play weird; that’s easy. What’s hard is to be as simple as Bach. Making the simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity.”

Charles Mingus

"Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people."

Leo Burnett

"Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine, and at last, you create what you will."

George Bernard Shaw
