Simone shared her story and facilitated a wonderful workshop with authenticity and warmth. Her presentation was engaging and accessible for all ages and stages. She took the time to understand our audience and vision and then created a meaningful workshop and program tailored for our community.

Simone was an exceptional speaker at our Spring Luncheon in honor of International Women’s Day. … One of the most memorable elements was her postcard exercise. … Her ability to inspire action, not just reflection, made her contribution truly outstanding.

President & CEO, Venice Area Chamber of Commerce
Simone uses a lavalier (lapel) microphone. She brings her own laptop and presentation clicker, so she just needs a connection from her laptop to the room’s screen or projector, plus a confidence monitor facing the stage.
Simone is based in Sarasota, Florida, and flies out of Tampa (TPA) or Sarasota (SRQ). She asks for a hotel close to the venue and speaks for events across the US and internationally.
Room setup depends on your event, so Simone plans it with you ahead of time to fit your audience, format, and goals.
Yes. Simone speaks at both in-person and virtual events and works with you to keep a virtual audience just as engaged as a room full of people.
