Inspiring Hearts Through Story & Art
About My Speaking
For over 27 years, I’ve created stories, illustrations, and live experiences that invite people back to their imagination — not as performance, but as a place of honesty, curiosity, and possibility.
Whether I’m speaking to elementary students, educators, businesses, families, or community groups, my goal is the same: to create moments that are engaging, meaningful, and deeply human.
My presentations are story-driven, visually engaging, and shaped around the audience in front of me.
What I Speak About
While every talk is tailored, common themes include:
-
Creativity as a way of seeing and engaging the world
-
How to take ideas and bring them to life
-
Kindness, empathy, and personal responsibility (When centered around 'The Flower Man')
-
Encouragement through humor, storytelling, and live art

Books & Art
My books and art can be sold at events through a book signing or given to those present. For example, some have used 'The Flower Man', my wordless picture book, as a give to each in the audience. Compounding the time together with a takeaway treasured into the future. We make this easy to do.
What Schools & Communities Say
“Every student was engaged — laughing, listening, and thinking.”
