"Welcome to "The Site."

It's time to brush the dust off my first book, "The Lost Art of Giving Back" ... my quick-read guide to volunteerism. Given the times we are in, community service is at a premium. It's also an important speaking topic I enjoy addressing. Contact me for more info on the book and my presentation on "Giving Back."

The Mission

"What is life without a sense of mission and purpose? It took me more than three decades to truly hone into mine, though the undercurrents were always there. I am a communicator by disposition, training, and profession, and I enjoy it. People often talk about knowing your “brand,” and if we define “brand” as the characteristics that distinguish you, then mine rest on three pillars - Speaking, Teaching, and Writing, with a healthy dose of communications and brand marketing consulting tossed in for good measure.​ 

 

"In terms of my work as a public speaker and communications/brand consultant, more information is available below and on the succeeding pages. However, the key point to remember is that regardless of the area of work or service, everything is done with a commitment to inspire, uplift, and empower. It’s not just a business model, it’s a lifetime dedication.​ 

 

"I am equipped to meet all your speaking, branding, and communications needs. Whether you're looking for expert advice, resources, or support, I'm here to help you succeed."Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to assisting you.
