Reviews

Your session on "The Impacts of Global Trade on Local Economies" received the highest rating of any session during the three day conference. Your ability to capture the attention of the audience during what is typically a dull subject was remarkable. The presentation was informative, well paced and most importantly, fun!

Charlie Roe Director of Education, Northwest Public Power Association

“Thanks for your excellent presentation to our international assembly of real estate regulators. Your program was seen as the conference highlight by many attendees. You received the highest marks of any of our speakers. It is unusual for us to bring in an economist for a conference on real estate law. We took a big risk, and you made us look good.”

Craig Cheatham, EVP ARELLO (Association of Real Estate License Law Off

"Even though you had a challenging time slot (after dinner following the retirement speech), you still managed to inform, energize and entertain the STIHL Branch and Distributer attendees..."
