“Dynamic!”
“Mike is the Spielberg for public speakers”
- Erin King, Bestselling Author, Top-Ranked Keynote Speaker
Whether we’re talking Ted Talks, podcast episodes, self-help books, or board rooms, the “good” part of any good story comes from YOU and your ability to tell it.
My job is to help you get to the core of your story (whether it’s how you became an astronaut or what you noticed in Aisle 2 at the grocery store last Tuesday…) and share it in a confident, unapologetic way that creates change. I don’t want you to just tell a cool story, I want your audience to be profoundly impacted by your words.
When that happens, you create what I like to call a #MikeDropMoment. It’s in these moments that powerful shifts occur. Sometimes they’re for you, sometimes they’re for your audience. Either way, someone becomes more unapologetically themself.
Much like a movie director, the job of a keynote director is to captivate the audience. By helping you own your power in your storytelling, we can transform your audience the same way Spielberg's Oscar winners do.
The most captivating people in the room are the ones who know how to make a scene. The Mike Drop Method transforms your relationship with your voice, body, and story so you can do exactly that.
You're here because you want to tell better stories. You want to tap into your full potential, but you aren't quite sure how to unmask the transformational story within you.
Are you ready for it?
And when our work is done, You'll do the same.

Go from satisfactory to standing ovation with this 90-minute creative and developmental session where I dive deep into your idea, your speech, and your story to help you punch up your talk so you can confidently conquer the stage.
I’ll pinpoint areas where you can crank up the drama, enhance the comedy, or add a touch of suspense.
This is a great fit for you if you’re already booked and busy but still missing that je ne sais quoi that will make your performance unforgettable.
Want to deliver a transformational speech on stage? It’s time to hire someone with the directorial chops to see the things you can’t and the creative ability to envision what’s possible for you.
Let’s work together on it all—your talk, delivery, production, distribution, and marketing—as part of an ongoing creative partnership.
"Mike helped me create the signature keynote I'd been dreaming of giving. He was so skillful, artful, creative in helping me create a #mikedropmoment."
“He should have charged me 5x as much because the VALUE I received was so astounding!”
“Working with Mike made me more compelling, more motivational, more relatable, and more myself”

What I won’t do?
I don’t lend my voice, my expertise, or my energy to messages that are divisive, anti-LGBTQ+, racist, anti-human rights, or rooted in fascism. That’s a non-negotiable.
If you’re here to build something meaningful, inclusive, and powerful, let’s make some magic together. If your message works to silence, exclude, or harm others, I’m simply not your guy. Full stop.
Love is love.
Black lives matter.
Trans rights are human rights.
No human is illegal.
Immigrants make the world a better place.
Women should decide what happens to their own bodies.
Period.
