  1. How do you come up with your speeches and writing?

I have a lot in my head and it makes me daydream often.  During those daydreams, I get ideas and have to find a piece of paper or my laptop.  I start to put together my thoughts, then I do a little research and add a few personal experiences and I have a speech.  Music is a good inspiration too.  There are so many everyday experiences that lead to ideas. I’ve got so many ideas in my head, I working on getting all of my ideas together into book form.  Be on the look out for several books over the next two years.

  1. What’s largest audience you have ever performed in front of?

I performed in front of over 3,500 people with my friend Rodger Campbell at Grand Valley State University.  It was their 2009 Freshman Orientation.  What a great time.  I can’t wait to post the video on this website.
