If you're looking for an entertaining generalist speaker who is well versed in current events, business, history, science and human motivation, we should talk.
I enjoy learning about new concepts and cultures. And I find
that my ability to weave those experiences into interesting stories keeps audiences engaged. I understand where many technical and scientific concepts
come from, what they mean, and why they are important to our lives.
I enjoy chronicling why events happen and investigating the forces behind them.
I write continually about my travels and the forces behind many business, historic
and scientific phenomena. (see my White
World site) To see more about my abilty to reach audiences visit the web site of the school where I taught from 2002 to 2008, Michigan
Language Academy. (As you look through it, keep in mind that I developed
the site, maintained it, and shot most of the pictures that are displayed in it.)
