You have an event, whether for your employees, or your entire industry, and you want it to make an impact. Do you think they really want to hear the same damn generic story that they’ve already heard from every speaker they’ve ever seen since they were in grade school?

How about a speaker that’s engaging, entertaining, and wants to make sure that he is the easiest speaker you’ve ever had to work with?

That’s what I provide.

“Ori presentation was called ‘Getting Out There, By a Guy Who’s Really Out There’  which is perfect for him.  He doesn’t just make powerpoints about social media.  He lives it! A year after his presentation, and people are still contacting me to thank me for his presentation, and the action they took because of it.” – Beverly Garvin, CEO of Urban Interact.

I am passionate about life, about people, and about innovation, about story telling. You know that message you want your audience to internalize, and be excited about? Betcha I have an adventure to deliver that point.

I don’t just speak about Social Media, I live it! It’s how I’ve found where I’m staying for the last 5 years. It’s how I’ve gotten to stay at Tony Hsieh’s house, or to stay with UFC cage fighters, or played Bull Poker.

I don’t just talk about overcoming obstacles… I overcome them daily.

I don’t just speak about smashing through comfort zones… I do it daily.

“I’ve never seen these kids get excited about a subject. And I’ve definitely never seen them pay attention for an entire hour!”  Denise Paige, Brooklyn College .

You can get a speaker that will give a canned speech… or you can get someone that is always up to date on the latest tools and techniques.

Some of the topics I am passionate about: Creativity, Innovation, Marketing, Social Media, Adventure, Self-Learning, Resourcefullness, Positivity, Overcoming Obstacles, and Good Ideas.

Being a marketer and copywriter, I can tailor any of my topics as a public speaker to perfectly match what your audience needs.
