"For over fifteen years, I have worked in the world of communication as a college professor, mentor, and coach, guiding thousands of students and professionals through the process of finding their voice. My expertise in public speaking comes from years of watching real people face fear, and self doubt, and learning what helps them move from nervousness to confidence. I understand the psychology of speaking, and the physical and emotional experience of being seen and evaluated. Because I have reviewed over 10,000 speeches and presentations, I can quickly identify what weakens a speaker, such as unclear organization, weak delivery, or nervous habits, and I know how to correct those issues in ways people can actually use.

This same experience makes me highly qualified to tutor interview preparation and presentation delivery, because both require speaking clearly under pressure. I know how fear changes the way people talk, how it causes rushing, overexplaining, or shrinking, and I know how to teach people to speak with calm, clarity, and confidence. I help people shape their stories, highlight their strengths, and communicate naturally rather than sounding memorized.

My work in proofreading comes from this same relationship with language. After grading thousands of papers, I understand how grammar, word choice, and sentence structure affect credibility. Proofreading is not just fixing mistakes, it is helping writing sound clear and professional, and I explain changes so people grow. What truly qualifies me is not just experience, but results. I have helped people prepare for moments that mattered, job interviews, academic evaluations, presentations, and leadership opportunities. I understand that communication is emotional as well as technical, and that many struggle not because they lack ability, but because they lack confidence and guidance. My work is about meeting people where they are and giving them tools to speak, write, and present with strength, clarity, and authenticity." less...
