I’ve been a full-time speaker and performing artist since 1994. I travel all over the world and speak to all kinds of groups: churches, Fortune 500 Companies, public schools, not-for-profit organizations and everything in between. I love what I do and I have a great time doing it.
This job is not without it’s hardships, however. Traveling from place to place, is extemely unglamorous in spite of what you might think. Staying in bug-infested hotels is not that thrilling either and I hate being away from my family.
I also have ADHD and Dyslexia which I talk about extensively in my presentations. I like to think of myself as an advocate for kids and adults with ADHD and I try to dispell the myths and the stigma that go along with this diagnosis whereever I go.
I’m fortunate to be married to a hot, Russian chick and we have two adorable little girls. My family is my life!
I’m also a follower of Christ and strive to live out my faith daily, though most days I fall far short of being Christ-like. Living by faith is truly the biggest and most exciting challenge of my life. I am very thankful that Christ came to save the world and not condemn it! I’d be toast otherwise.
Who I'd like to meet: Michael W. Smith and John Williams.
U were just at my high school yesterday and I'd like to say that i have add and am glad u told us about that. Cause now i know a lot of other ppl who i would think woulnd never have nything like that. Thanks again!

Yo chalkguy you better come back to Monsignor Pace Highschool
hey there Chalkguy,
Our JILG class got to see you at the JILG Career Development Conference in Rosemont, IL and you were amazing. We loved that you were able to make something beautiful out of the chalk drawing once it was destroyed. That is a lot how we feel sometimes, like everything in our life is alright, then something comes along and destroys it, but you reminded us that we can always create something again from whatever is left. Thanks, and we hope to see you again!
