It’s been a while since I’ve told you all what I’m doing. Trust me when I tell you, there’s always plenty to do. My event schedule is starting to fill up again. I don’t have all the info just yet, but here is what to be on the lookout for:

  • In February, I have the honor of being one of the speakers for The Black Speakers Network Black History Speakers series. I’ll share the story of Garrett Morgan, the creation of the gas mask, and its impact on the fire service.
  • In April, I’ll be one of the performers for Artomatic 2024. It’s about a month and a half of artists of all disciplines coming together in Washington, DC, to showcase their disciples. I’ll be telling stories about fire service history, including African Americans in the fire service.

I’m waiting to hear back about performances in May and June that are also exciting. Be sure to subscribe to the blog or check in on my page HERE to learn more about the places I’ll be telling stories and jokes and talks with folks. Looking forward to seeing you sometime this year!

After years of being an instructor in the military and the and the fire service, I realized I needed to improve my delivery. My students needed me to improve delivery. But how do I improve my delivery? Simple. I finally took a member of Toastmasters up on the invitation to come to a meeting. It wasn't long until I joined. Along the way of improving my skills at delivering a message, I came to understand that of all the ways to get a point across, telling stories is the best way to get it done. Around this time, another friend from Toastmasters told me about The Moth monthly story telling shows. What better way to test out my theories on storytelling. It's in my travels there to the shows that I found more and more shows, and classes, and events centered around storytelling. Despite how many people know about the storytelling world, not many people know about the storytelling world. So now, I'm out to tell the world about storytelling.
