2025 KEEN Conference

Life is about growth—pushing past where we are today and discovering just how far we can go. I believe in perseverance, purpose, and the impact we can have on others when we choose to lift them up.

My passion for speaking comes from a lifetime of experiences that have shaped my understanding of leadership, resilience, and service. I share real-world lessons about overcoming obstacles, embracing challenges, and striving to be better than yesterday.

I’ve had the privilege of being a high school graduation speaker on three occasions, inspiring students as they step into the next chapter of their lives. I’ve also spoken at the National Storm Chaser Summit, engaging with professionals who understand the power of pushing forward in unpredictable conditions. No matter the audience, my message remains the same: you are capable of more than you think.

I speak on growth, leadership, and the impact of helping others, encouraging people to step outside their comfort zones, push past limits, and recognize the strength they already have within them. Through engaging stories, humor, and practical insights, I challenge audiences to think bigger, work harder, and never stop learning.
