Welcome to my website! You either got here intentionally or by accident. I hope it was intentional.

I have been telling stories ever since I could talk - and that's a very long time. Professionally, I have been telling 20+ years. To me, nothing is more rewarding than to see the delight on a young child's face as they are drawn into and participate in a story or someone older remembering part of their own life experiences.

To hear laughter from the audience or see them hold back a tear tells me we have connected with each other in one of the most personal of human endeavors - communication.

We all have stories to tell. However the fear of public speaking is
one of the most intense and intimidating things we can do. Even the most seasoned storyteller will admit to having butterflies dance in their stomach before a performance.
