Invite Me to Speak at Your Event
I believe every great presentation starts with a story that moves people.
Known for weaving together heartfelt storytelling and gentle humor, I draw from my background in social work and human resources to share talks that truly resonate—whether I'm speaking to corporate teams, leadership groups, or community organizations.
Just as in life, genuine connection is one of the most important things to me when I'm on stage. I don’t just speak at audiences—I speak with them.
My talks explore universal experiences like personal transformation, resilience, and navigating grief in the workplace.
By balancing vulnerability with levity, I aim to create a space where people feel seen, supported, and equipped to face challenges head-on.
Not Your Average Speaker
Real-Life Caregiving & Resilience
I speak from deep personal experience having navigated the complexities of dementia and caregiving for both of my parents, along with ultimately losing them. Sharing these heartfelt, raw moments allows me to connect with audiences on a truly human level, offering genuine comfort and real guidance on grief, resilience, and workplace support.
Comedy, Improv & Genuine Fun
I believe in the power of laughter. To keep my sessions fun and dynamic, I sprinkle in practical tips, techniques, and interactive lessons learned from my years doing improv comedy around Charleston. Expect an experience that is witty, deeply engaging, and incredibly fun!
