A trusted partner before, during, and after the event
From conferences and corporate events to churches and youth sports organizations, every engagement is designed around the needs of the audience and the goals of the event.
Pat Sharrow
Executive Director, Project Play Southeast Michigan
"Jonathan is everything you hope for from a speaker - prompt, highly responsive, thoughtful, and proactive. He worked closely with our team to craft a custom presentation that inspired our audience and set the tone for the entire event. We look forward to working with him again in the future!"
Katie Alland
Director, Suntory Global Spirits
"Jonathan was a pleasure to work with and really resonated with our employees. He was responsive during the planning process, prepared with an outline before the event, and approachable during the talk, sharing both quantitative data and relatable personal stories."
Kyle Scott Laskowski
Founder, Buying Sandlot
"Jonathan did an incredible job moderating our panel at the Buying Sandlot Summit. He asked thoughtful questions, framed the conversation in an engaging way, and helped create one of the stronger discussions of the event."
Mike Brunjes
Lead Pastor, CPC Wallingford
"Jonathan is a great communicator who understands the complicated dynamics of youth sports. He helped our church embrace all of the wonderful things sports teach us about life while helping parents understand there is more to life than what happens on the athletic field."
More than a speaker
Making your job easier and your event stronger
Planning a successful event takes more than finding the right speaker.
From audience engagement and event promotion to customizing content for your attendees, there are dozens of details that determine whether an event is simply attended or genuinely impactful.
Because of his background in marketing and communications, Jonathan works closely with organizers to understand their goals, tailor presentations to their audience, and help create an experience that delivers value long before and long after he takes the stage.
For select events, support may include promotional content, audience engagement strategies, event messaging, and other resources designed to help maximize participation and impact.

How It works
Every event is different, but the process is straightforward
We'll work together to understand your audience, customize the experience, and create an event that delivers lasting value.
Step 1
Start the conversation
Tell me about your audience, goals, event format, and what success looks like for your organization.
Step 2
Build the experience
Together we'll create an engagement that fits your audience, whether that's a keynote, workshop, panel discussion, webinar, or partnership.
Step 3
Deliver an event that makes a real difference
From preparation and promotion to the event itself, the goal is to create a meaningful experience that serves your audience well.
Every great event starts with a conversation
No pressure. No one-size-fits-all packages. Just a conversation about what would best serve the people you're bringing together.
