Keynote Speaking

As a networker, convener and connector, I love sharing the story of connection and community. I believe in the power of “old school” relationships. I deleted my social media in the fall of 2022 as I was planning to be an entrepreneur because I want it to be built on real life connections and networks and not technology and superficial means of communications and connecting.  This is something I live and breathe and love to inspire others about finding happiness, belonging to themselves and a community, and connection.

Topics of interest:

  • Doing what makes you “come alive”

  • Connection, belonging, and networks

  • Speaking your truth

  • Stepping out in the unknown

  • Building community

I love developing talks to inspire others and share my story, if you have a topic or theme in mind, contact me to see if we’d be a good match.

The biggest indicator of happiness is how strong our social bonds and friendships are.
