Speaking has led me to unexpected places and awesome people.

A farmhouse on a vineyard in Oregon. A pineapple crop in East Africa. A penthouse suite conference room overlooking the Vegas Strip. An Air Force base in the desert.

A sales force of 400 people at a global company. A dozen Rwandan genocide survivors. A classroom full of college students. A church sanctuary full of diverse people.

Whether I’m speaking about how to be a stronger, confident presenter, how yard signs saved someone’s life, or reconciling my faith in a messy complicated world, speaking makes me feel alive.
