I'm an experienced Event Professional, Speaker, Trainer and Writer with special interest in sustainable events.  In my role at Conference Partners, I design, develop and execute events for clients, with an eye to strategic, sustainable events.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Conference Partners, Inc. provides end-to-end meeting services as well as event management a la carte.

I'm looking to share ideas and explore new opportunities for speaking as well as events to manage, -- nationally or internationally, big or small, on land or at sea.
