Inspirational, motivating, dynamic, powerful, humorous, creative, captivating! These are all words that have been used by teachers, book reviewers, parents, and conference attendees who have attended one of my speaking engagements.
After being frustrated by the pop culture icons and the super-rich athletes who are displayed as heroes by our society, I have spent much of my life learning about true heroes and sharing their stories with other educators. I spent my educational career in public schools as a social studies teacher, elementary school principal, assistant superintendent, and professor.
Currently, I present keynote addresses to conferences/ conventions for corporate, teacher, and parent groups. I also do teacher workshops and in-service programs. I have been called one of the most inspirational speakers in America by thousands of fans across the country. Join me in inspiring educators to bring heroes alive in the life of a child!
