Speaking & Thought Leadership
A voice that comes from inside the room.

I'm not a speaker who once worked in music. I'm a musician, educator, and entrepreneur who is still doing all three, sharing what that actually looks like from the inside.

What I Speak About
Signature Topics

My presentations draw on 28 years of experience as a performer, educator, Fine Arts administrator, and entrepreneur. Every topic I speak on is something I am actively living, not something I read about or studied from a distance.

I speak to music educators, university programs, performing arts organizations, and professional associations. I am available for keynotes, breakout sessions, panels, and workshops. Custom topic development is available for organizations with specific needs.
