I help leaders and organizations transform the way they communicate — because performance doesn’t break down in strategy meetings, it breaks down in conversations.

I’m a leadership communication and performance speaker known for translating complex organizational dynamics into clear, executable conversations.

Throughout my career, I’ve held senior leadership and organizational development roles within large-scale organizations, supporting:

  • Workforces of 100,000+ employees

  • $40+ billion in annual revenue

  • Environments where accountability, execution, and results were non-negotiable

That experience shaped how I work today. I’ve seen firsthand that most performance challenges are not caused by a lack of talent or effort — they’re caused by communication breakdowns under pressure.

Where My Work Lives

My work sits at the intersection of:

  • Leadership behavior

  • Communication under pressure

  • Sales and client-facing conversations

  • Organizational performance and execution

I focus on the conversations leaders avoid, rush through, or underestimate — because those moments determine:

  • Ownership vs. avoidance

  • Trust vs. resistance

  • Execution vs. stalled performance

How I Work

I don’t teach people what to say.

I teach them how to communicate in ways that create:

  • Clear ownership

  • Real accountability

  • Trust that holds under pressure

  • Action — not just alignment

Especially in the conversations that matter most.

What to Expect from My Keynotes

My keynotes are:

  • Grounded

  • Direct

  • Built for real-world application

Every message connects communication directly to performance, revenue, and return on investment, giving leaders tools they can apply immediately — not concepts that stay on a slide.

At its core, my work helps organizations close the gap between intention and execution by changing how conversations actually happen.
