“Every individual in the world has a unique contribution.”

I regularly give presentations at middle schools, high schools, colleges, and student organizations. I am also available to speak at professional associations about coaching, mentoring, and how to support young people in finding their path.  The cost is determined based on the venue and the hiring organization's financial resources.  

What To Expect
My presentations to students are always interactive, resembling a workshop more than a talk.  I make an effort to engage all participants.  I also lead a self-directed portion of the workshop so that each participant has the opportunity to understand how the ideas presented relate to their life.  My intention is to get young people thinking about the choices they make and how to find their own path.    

Testimonials
"Adrian is able to offer the best of both worlds... he is young enough to relate to the students and have their trust when discussing sensitive topics such as peer pressure, yet his maturity and experience give him a command of the class that takes most teachers years to achieve.  His insights were eye-opening for the students.  He was able to get the students to a level of reflection and critical thinking that is rare for ninth graders."
  – Jen Dolan, Teacher, Tamalpais HS

"One of the students remarked the next day, 'Our guest speaker rocked!'" 
  – Michael Collins, Teacher, Schools of the Sacred Heart.

"Having Adrian speak to our membership was one of the highlights of the semester. He really got our group thinking about their path in life and ignited meaningful thoughts in everyone. The Hospitality Management Association highly recommends Adrian and his services."
