Speaking

I've had the pleasure to present to several groups around the Triangle area including the High Five Conference, the Summit On Content Marketing and The Triangle Marketing club. The presentation below was my perspective on what I call "Creative Commoditization" for the 2016 High Five Conference in Raleigh.

I build all my own decks using Powerpoint. You can get a sense of how I like to present content on my Slideshare page.
