That's the question I pose to potential clients. I'm passionate about the power to influence people and move them to action through the spoken word. And I share that passion by writing speeches and presentations for clients, coaching other writers and speakers to sharpen their skills, and teaching presentation design and speechwriting to people in small group workshops. I also love to explore Mac and iOS technology and I write about both subjects for ScreenCastsOnline Monthly Magazine. Plus I love to travel and have a goal to turn that passion into another career as a travel writer. Read my blog for insights on communication and the world unfolding around me on my travels.

@antonzuiker Thanks for the encouraging remark about my New Yorker black hole cartoon idea. Regretably I am artistically untalented, so I remain a cartoonist only in my dreams. And I even thought of a caption: A small group of astrophyicists would be looking at the black hole image on a big screen with boots and car keys etc whirling about and one would say: \"Looks like we discovered a little more than we'd hoped for.\" I still haven't seen a real New Yorker black hole cartoon but I figure it's a matter of time...and space.
