I realized very early on that I wasn’t afraid of speaking in public. In school, I’d always volunteer to present in front of the class when nobody else wanted to. I just never thought of it as a career option and never considered why I liked it so much, until recently.

I come from a family of artists. Mostly amateurs, but also professional. We love to sing, dance, write, tell jokes, perform, model, you name it. We love the performing arts, and this is the main reason I enjoy public speaking—it’s in my genes.

Additionally, giving talks allows me to share my passion for positive psychology with more people other than my students. When I prepare my talks, I carefully craft the content, format, and activities to connect with the audience. I deliver lively, engaging, and thought-provoking workshops that make people curious.

I have presented at schools and universities, professional organizations, companies, and promotional events face-to-face and online. I would love to give a TEDx or even a TED Talk one day. If you’re interested in having me speak within your organization, please fill out the contact form.
