Johnathan’s Communication & Public Speaking Qualifications
Experience level: Manager
I help professionals sharpen their communication and public speaking so they can clearly convey complex ideas, inspire confidence, and tell their story with impact. Whether you’re preparing for a keynote, stakeholder briefing, or pitching an article idea to your favorite outlet, I’ll help you build the narrative structure to deliver your message with authority. My career spans finance, the military, policy, government, social entrepreneurship, and technology. I’ve led high-stakes briefings for senior defense leaders, written and published policy and technology analysis across a dozen outlets, and was awarded the Navy League’s Alfred Thayer Mahan Literary Award for my writing in national security. From pitching at the Pentagon to presenting at technology conferences, I’ve seen how the right message, delivered with clarity and confidence, can open doors. If you want to strengthen your voice I’d love to set up an introductory call to help you refine your presence and maximize your impact.
