Media Pitch

Why me? I’m a former actor/acting teacher that understands vocal variety: volume, pitch, and pace. I come in with energy, enthusiasm, passion and humor, and I’m technically equipped to sound professional, too. I’m sensitive to having a conversation vs. just monolog-ing, though I do enjoy exploring the depth of an energized and creative emergence…at the very least, we won’t have a technically boring session 🙂

I’m happy to talk business, but by no means your average business person. I’ve valued freedom and flexibiilty over financial gain my entire adult life, creativity and contribution over consistent income. I’m not saying I’ve always been right to do so…

As an artist, I often talk about business topics in ways that turn the prism slightly from how things are often discussed, illuminating the same principle from a different perspective.

I am happy to let you steer me towards giving the most value to your audience. I enjoy being surprised by what I express when I’m asked questions. It’s why I love coaching so much: even though I am often helping people with similar problems, it’s never the same conversation twice.

Grateful for your consideration, thank you!

Talking Points or Standard Questions

My story: after being targeted by a con man, I eventually filed bankruptcy weeks before the death of my father and thus intermingling the two legal cases. Successfully overcoming this adversity led me to coaching, and to deep insights on why people make investments that aren’t a tailored fit to their needs.

Standard Questions:

–Having worked in the coaching industry for much of the last 12 years, you’ve seen inside many different successful businesses from many different perspectives. Based on that experience, what advice would you give to the consumer? To someone who is considering attending a premium event, or hiring a coach?

–You say that the most challenging business one can choose is being an actor. Why is that? What can we learn from the challenges the actor faces?

–Besides learning from the business of acting, is there anything business owners can learn from the craft of acting?

–When you talk about depth in your work, coming from a deeper place…what does that mean to you? From where, exactly, are you talking about? What benefit does that have to [my audience]?
