Keynotes

One of my greatest joys is addressing a room full of people in a shared time of transition. My keynote speeches draw the lessons of a given moment in my life into a vivid set of stories that — together with my background in theatre and performance — carries an audience emotionally from the first word to the last.

You can read a selection of my past speeches below. I am available to tailor an existing speech for your needs or to craft new remarks that are unique to your group and their story. I can also design a keynote that features my beauty pageantry research or any of the subject matter that I offer through workshops.
