Looking for a breakout or keynote speaker?
I love to work with state school counselor associations, school districts, departments of education, and others to create engaging, knowledgeable, and relevant presentations to school counselors, counselor educators, district and state administrators, and other stakeholders. I enjoy public speaking and getting to meet a lot of new contacts through the experience, while sharing some of my knowledge. If you would like to learn more or discuss a speaking engagement – please email me and we can get started! Feel free to check out some general areas I can hit strongly (I am open to other ideas – these are areas that I have more expertise in), a list of prior and upcoming speaking engagements, and some user feedback.
Speaking Topics
- Technology
- Social media
- Communication tools (emails, newsletters. video chatting, YouTube, IM, etc)
- Maximizing the use of technology within your counseling programs
- Marketing/Branding
- Leadership
- Systems level thinking
- And more…
