I'd Like to Help You Save The World.
I'm often considered an outspoken individual; someone who just doesn't quite know when to shut up. It took me 28 years to realize that that fact is my greatest strength. Now that I do understand that, I've dedicated my life to being outspoken on your behalf. That's correct: I want to use my voice to help you change the world.
This page gives you some background on me, but really that's just to get you comfortable trusting me with your mission. We all have amazing ideas and it's far past time that someone gave them a voice. Let me be that voice for you. Together, I have no doubt that we can alter the world we live in for the better.

I Have No Doubts About You
Where Did This Idea Come From?
To be quite frank about this: I stole it.
Now, I didn't steal the entirety of it, but I did get the core concept from another, much larger organization: TED (ted.com). TED, for those of you who were unaware of it's existence, is an annual gathering of our world's finest minds in an attempt to spread as many fantastic ideas as possible. I won't waste much time talking about TED here, but I do highly recommend checking out their site, videos, etc.
The part where I speak on you behalf, that's mine. Like I said above: I'm outspoken. It seemed to make good sense to me that I should use that gift to spread the ideas of those more innovative (but quieter) individuals. I've spent enough of my life talking myself up and trying to break into stardom with music; the schmooze just comes naturally to me.
