Not seeing what you want? Let me know the goals and restraints of your event and your audience, and I’ll work within it!
Youth Events & Churches
I am also available to speak at youth events and churches, on a wide range of subjects, including Bible teaching. I would be glad to work with you to discern your group’s needs.

If your group has experienced a loss from suicide, I am available to facilitate a space of conversation and grieving, both in a secular or religious context. There is no charge for this.
