What audiences do you speak for?

I usually speak to front line managers in Fortune 500 companies,

government organizations and heavy emphasis on the construction

industry.

 

What led you to this career?

I have known that I would be a speaker since I was little. I didn’t know

the topic or the how but had that gut feeling. I started speaking in

college and was an emcee for many events. I continued to speak, but

not as a profession. Many of my events that I was speaking at, Stu was

a speaker too. I knew he was the President of NSA-NT. I called him up

one day and asked him to lunch. I picked his brain on how to make my

speaking business a career. This led me to my NSA family.


What’s one professional skill you’re currently working on?

I am a huge fan of education and designations. I set a goal of three new

designations a year. I am constantly taking classes and set goals to

better myself. In the speaking business, I am always working on the

basics and advanced techniques. I have been speaking for many years

and still like I have a long way to go to satisfy who I want to become.

 

What’s your go-to productivity trick?

I have a great a morning routine. I set up each day and make

adjustments to the week each morning. This allows me to tackle to big

tasks each day and have a successful week.

 

Who has influenced you most when it comes to how you approach your work?

All my Grandparents were successful entrepreneurs and I have learned

many things about business from all of them. Influences in the

speaking business have been many. I have picked up many techniques

from NSA members and have educated myself through books and

videos.

 

What’s a mistake you made early on in your career, and what did you learn

from it?

Just do it. Many new speakers hesitate and think they aren’t good

enough or things aren’t perfect. You learn by doing, that is what makes

you better.

 

What’s a work-related accomplishment that you’re really proud of?

I have many accomplishments that I am proud of, but I would say the

one that stands out is technology. I was always pretty good with

technology, but through Covid, I elevated my game quite a bit. I spent

many hours researching and watching videos. It really took me to next

the next level in how I present virtually.

 

What being a member of NSA-NT means to you?

NSA-NT has become my second family. I have made some great

friends and received lots of valuable information. I explain it like being

around a bunch of like-minded friends that just get it.

 

Something personal you want us to know- can be about family, a vacation, a

favorite food- anything you care to share?

I have 7-year-old twins. (Boy and Girl). They are my motivation and

why I work as hard as I do.
