Discover the Art of Storytelling for Impact and Influence. Land the job, nail the presentation, grow your brand, secure the deal... All of these successes start with knowing your story and communicating it effectively. After more than 20 years producing award-winning stories for ESPN, HBO's "Real Sports", CBS News, Weekend Today, and the Olympics, I now help companies, clients, and audiences of all sizes discover the power of story. The stories we put out to the world impact the way people see us and the opportunities we'll get. While the stories we tell ourselves influence our course of action. I work with high-achievers to use story to build their brand, manage their message, perfect that presentation and advocate for themselves as they ascend the leadership ladder. Speaking at conferences, I offer unique keynotes and interactive breakout sessions on the storytelling skills to speak up and stand out from the crowd, while engaging audiences in meaningful and memorable content. Partnering with corporations, I help bridge the talent gap, encouraging executives to lead with authenticity and building strong, diverse teams that employ the power of multi-perspectivity, active listening and creative collaboration. At colleges and universities, I lecture about career development, personal branding, and presentation skills and currently serve as adjunct faculty at the University of Connecticut's School of Business as well as adjunct professor at Quinnipiac University..
