Invite Me to Your Campus, School, Conference or Event
I adore traveling and talking with teens, young adults, and teachers. I can tailor a talk or presentation, a workshop or demonstration, and a keynote or full school address to fit your needs. I speak and teach on a variety of topics and I offer book making, mixed media, and writing workshops for smaller groups.
If I’m in your town, visiting a nearby location, perhaps you can arrange to share travel cost with them for the same time period. I'm happy to conduct multiple day workshops, talks, etc.
I have worked with students in grades 4-12, from gifted and/or magnet students to “at-risk” and "developmental" students and everything in between. I will be happy to provide references and to work with your teachers to make sure we create a program that is just right for your kids.
My experience with educators spans 18 years and ranges from working with administrators, parents, and teachers of K-12 students, as well as college level faculty, staff, and administration.

Virtual Visits
I am totally an introvert who knows how to function in an extrovert world, so sometimes, it may be easier for us to bring me to your classroom via a live streaming application (Skype, FaceTime, Live Stream, Google Hangouts, etc.). My rates are different for these virtual visits. Start with the booking request form and let's go from there.
How to Request Me
To arrange a visit, start by completing the booking request form and providing me with details about your event. Once that information is provided I will be in touch to discuss logistics and possibly

Current Fees
I prefer to create customized presentations tailored to the needs of each audience. Because of this, my rates vary from audience to audience. Please complete the booking request form and a quote will be provided. However, if you need a range to work from, here are some general guidelines for my rates:
In-state fees range from $175 per hour to $1200 for the entire day (6 hours)
Out of state fees range from $250 per hour to $1800 for the entire day (6 hours)
**these rates are subject to change based on the needs of your school/organization
**I conduct about five to seven complimentary 2-hour talks each year (usually in Northern California) for schools with creative proposals. If you'd like to be considered for one of those spots please complete this form. These slots are usually taken by the middle of July of each year for the following school year. Get your application done early. If your school is out-of-state, my speaking fee can be waived, but not the travel and lodging.
