I talk about market strategy, competition, and AI, as an operator with two exits, a NASDAQ acquisition story, and a stage tested by live statewide broadcast. No recycled frameworks, no motivational filler. Just real decisions, real numbers, and what they cost.
Each keynote is built from operating experience, tuned to the room, and backed by numbers the audience can verify. Formats run from a 30-minute keynote to a half-day working session.
Competition & market strategy
Outpacing competition in markets where inventory and attention are scarce, the session behind a sell-out room at the Land Investment Expo. Who moves first, who pays for hesitation, and how to know which one you are.
Growth architecture
The growth architecture behind +490% inbound-call growth and +1,000% lead growth, attribution, operating cadence, and the machinery that keeps compounding after the applause ends.
AI & marketing operations
What AI-native marketing operations actually look like, beyond the demo reel. Where automation cuts cost, where it compounds output, and where humans still win.
Leadership & composure
Mission planning and composure, from the 75th Ranger Regiment to the boardroom, how elite teams decide when the cost of being wrong is absolute.
Iowa Land Investment Expo, Des Moines, 2024
I was a featured speaker at one of agriculture’s premier annual events, hosted by Peoples Company and running every year since 2008, before a sell-out audience of land investors, agricultural professionals, and policy leaders.
The session cut through a tightening market: how buyers stay in front when inventory and attention are both scarce, and why the operators who move decisively keep winning the ground the hesitant ones study.

Atlanta Press Club, GPB / PBS, 2018
I was selected for Georgia’s most prominent debate series, $1M-endowed and broadcast statewide on PBS, live and unscripted, questioned by the state’s leading journalists.
No teleprompter, no second take, no friendly moderator. Ninety minutes of live television is the purest stress test a speaker can face, and the tape is public.

+490% call volume, +1,000% leads, two successful exits, every claim on stage is a number the audience can check. The talk earns its keep with substance.
Founder to boardroom, by way of a Ranger Regiment background. An arc your attendees will retell at the reception, and cite in the post-event survey.
Briefing calls kept, slides delivered on deadline, tech checks on time. Mission planning is the habit; your run-of-show is safe.
Ninety minutes of live statewide television is the credential. Your toughest audience question won’t be the toughest one I’ve taken.
Tell me about your event, the audience, the theme, the date, and I’ll come back with a session built for the room, not a deck off the shelf.
