Speaking

Speaking

Let’s talk. You and me. Yes, you – the person reading this. And me, Mitch – right here, and in the pixels.

If you’re reading this page, then it’s because something about my bio or experience has piqued your interest. You have an event that you are hosting – a conference; a luncheon; a continuing education session. I have the knowledge, experience, and entertainment value to ensure that event is a resounding success.

Whether it’s a keynote to thousands, or an intimate class for a few, I can make it educational and entertaining – after all, a good speaker can be both.

Sound good? Awesome – contact me and let’s talk. Need convincing? Read on…

Topics of Choice

If you want me to speak my best, here are the best topics I can give a session on:

  • Gamification
  • Digital Strategy
  • WordPress Development / Web Design
  • Social Media / Marketing
  • Content Creation (YouTube or Twitch)

Don't Take MY Word For It...

"{Mitch} was knowledgeable and engaging! I can’t stop thinking about his session because he presented the information in such a way that made it resonate with me and sparked ideas for how to gamify some programs at my institution.

Gamification is presented, often times, as this lofty, elusive idea, but the presenter made it seem like it is something that is easily integrated into current strategy.

10/10 would recommend."

2019

Note About 2019
In 2019, I took a year off to re-focus, re-align my business, and spend some time NOT traveling to hang out with my wife and kids.I will be back to speaking in 2020 with new presentations and new topics to cover, so stay tuned!

2020

Note About 2020
It's safe to say that 2020 has been an interesting/strange year. What I'd hoped to turn into a return to speaking saw all of the conferences I'd applied to cancelled or rescheduled. I am still available for virtual conferences, and will return to in-person conferences once it is safe to do so!
