I'm an award-winning speechwriter, author, and executive communications strategist experienced in helping CEOs and senior leaders improve their credibility, reputation and business results. I develop speaking strategies, message platforms, and speeches that drive organizational goals.

 

For nearly a quarter of a century, I've worked with Fortune 50-level executives and not-for-profit leaders to protect and enhance their reputations.

 

I'm the author of 10 Steps to Writing a Vital Speech and a founding member and advisory board member for the Professional Speechwriters Association (PSA). I'm also Director of the PSA’s Speechwriting School and a judge for the Cicero Awards which annually recognize the world's best speeches.

​

Clients have included EarthEcho International, Sodexho, National University, LA WeightLoss, VisionIT, Wayne County (Mich.) and the Hearst Corporation.

​

My speeches have been republished in Vital Speeches of the Day 23 times and I've won the four Gold Cicero Awards, including the Grand Prize for Best Speech of the Year.
