Public Speaking

I love speaking at conferences and providing training on these fun, important topics!

I have given presentations at numerous conferences on topics such as marketing, the importance of public art, how to give your events a boost, community partnerships, tactical urbanism, creative placemaking, marketing, and involvement branding.

Not included in the list below are presentations at various civic groups such as local Ambucs, Civitan Club, Kiwanis, PEO, REALTOR® Association, Retired Educators, Lifelong Learning, and other groups.
