DONT GET INSPIRED. GET MOTIVATED.

By definition, inspiration gives moments of creative thought and ideas. Do you need more of those? Maybe. But years in the corporate world has shown me that motivation is really what's needed. I approach every talk with the idea that it's not just about coming up with something brand new, but rather figuring out ways to make things happen. I fuse together my life stories of having to break through barriers, something I have built a reputation on doing (since you are on this website you may get a sense of that!), while engaging the audience and urging them to not just sit there and listen, but be a part of the conversation.

I am what some would call multi-hyphenate. My abbreviated resume would read: advertising and marketing executive, competitive race car driver, world's only quadriplegic rescue scuba diver, multiple marathoner, charity founder, ex-comedian, husband, dog dad, and a human that has never accepted the realities of being a C6 quadriplegic.

At 15 years old, I dove into the ocean, broke my neck (C6), drowned and was clinically dead for 2.5 minutes. I can hear your gasp. But I see that moment as one of the most important (maybe even best) days of my life. 

My goal is to help you find “loopholes” in life that allow you to be successful beyond the limitations other people put on you. Because the reality is, I believe we all have our own “wheelchairs”. Mine happens to be visible. But whether you have depression, PTSD, are on the spectrum, have relationship issues or anything else, we all have something which holds us back and makes us feel underrated. But once we find that, we have found our superpower!!
