Personal Details

Bio

The asked question was “Why Choose Me?” Well, in choosing me, you are choosing yourself. When you hear me speak, I will be speaking on your behalf. I am your social agent.

You give me a problem, and I will do more than just solve it. I will convince you that it isn’t a problem at all, but an opportunity for you to put your best self on display for the world to see.

In teaching music to elementary school students, I have experienced first hand how kids from the ages of 4 to 14 interact. Spoiler alert, it’s the same way adults interact. We just have more to share and more ways to share it.

My goal on the stage is the same as it is in the classroom. Be simple and effective. I will take whatever complications you have and make them appear as simple as can be. Whether it’s a problem you have with yourself, or with the world around you, I will help you reconnect with what matters most in your life which will drive you to always make the decision that is best for you.

At the end of the day, you will always make the choice. My job is to provide you with the consequences of your choices and help you find the one that holds the most value to your long term happiness.

In order to prove that I am all in for you, I prefer to start my speeches by asking the question “Who’s First?” If someone has a question for me, that becomes the focus. If I end up spending my entire time on the stage answering audience questions, then that is a success. In the potential event in which no audience members come forward with their own stories, I will always have my own motivational material prepared.

One way or another, you will receive a clearer understanding of what makes you special, and how showing that special is the greatest, and only, choice you ever need to make in life.

Why choose me? 

The “Who’s First” method allows audience members to share a story/scenario with me as I simplify it.
