Profile

My passion for instruction guides me. I’ve lectured and presented for 15 years in 25 different states.  I’m much more than a teacher.  I’m a manager, counselor, work-force trainer, comedian, motivational speaker &  friend.  I’m also a visual storyteller.  I shoot, write, narrate, edit, host, produce, technical direct and manage all aspects of video productions.
