His combination of knowledge, wit and delivery makes him an event organizer’s dream.
I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard or felt so engaged by a speaker as when in your presence. You have such a wonderful, down-to-earth approach that allows you to connect with an entire audience as if you were sitting there talking with them personally. It truly is a gift. You are a teacher, advisor, coach, and one-man comedy act rolled into one. As a former Chamber of Commerce Executive, I appreciated your leadership and championship of the Chambers, and now, as an author and speaker, myself, I get to learn from a real pro. Thanks for all you do to uplift others.
