Speaking That Builds Bridges

With 28 years inside both fintech and banking, I know why bank–fintech engagements stall — and what it takes to move deals forward.

When I step on stage, my focus isn’t hype. It’s giving your audience practical ways to reframe challenges, build trust faster, and turn polite no’s into real momentum.

My talks aren’t motivational fluff. They’re strategic, story-driven sessions that help leaders translate across cultures, align around values, and build partnerships that actually work.

What I Talk About—Why It Moves People

From the Inside Out: What 23 Years at Jack Henry Taught Me About Real Partnerships

Becoming a revenue leader at one of banking's biggest players—and why I left to build the bridges that actually work. Insider insights you can't get anywhere else.

Building Bridges

How fintechs and banks can stop talking past each other and start building values-driven partnerships. Real stories + practical frameworks = momentum.

The Partnership Paradox

Why "perfect fit" partnerships stall, and how to reframe tension between innovation and regulation as risk mitigation instead of compliance.

Lessons and tactics from someone who's led at large and small brands.

How small fintechs and community banks can win by leaning on authenticity, agility, and focus.

Every talk is customized to your audience—from fintech accelerators to national banking associations.
