Speak Up! Sprint Program
Save hours of your time and double your investor readiness by learning how to speak without a script — in 3 laser-focused sessions.
Welcome to Speak Up!: the communication accelerator built for scientific entrepreneurs, engineers, and technical founders.
We believe public speaking doesn’t have to be scary (or boring).
Does this sound familiar?
• You're a tech founder, scientific entrepeneur, or professional in a technical field.
• You self-identify as someone socially anxious, an introvert and/or English may not be your first language
• You know your science — but when you speak in high-stakes situations (a pitch, a conference presentation, an interview), your mind goes blank
• You tend to overthink and ramble during high-stakes settings (pitch, board, media, demo day)
• You're tired of "generic" public speaking advice and want no-fluff, high-ROI actionable strategies
This 1-on-1 program is designed just for you.
By the end of 3 sessions of Speak Up Sprint!, you'll:
• Create a 90-second reusable pitch explaining your business with razor-sharp clarity across different contexts (networking, pitch days, demos)
• Learn the same quick-thinking techniques actors and improv performers use to nail any high-stakes situations you face: pitching, Q & A, sales
• Get live, tailored feedback on different aspects of performance (e.g., tone, body language, pace, pausing, clarity) and recordings so you know exactly where to improve.
You will also receive the following bonuses:
• SpeakUp! Snapshot™ — an edited before/after video clip showing tangible improvement in speaking
• SpeakUp! Playbook™ — a personalized list of exercises and frameworks that will supercharge your communication skills
For now, I'm offering my first sessions for FREE, which include:
• A diagnostic (i.e., what I think you should work on that'll give you the highest rate of improvement)
• A tailored plan to address the most pressing issue in 3 sessions
• Drills + exercises to give you a "feel" of the program
This is your chance to sharpen your most valuable business skill without spending a dollar.
Note: Inclusivity matters to me. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space for all—whether you identify as an introvert, a socially anxious person, gender minority, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, a second-language learner, or belong to another group. All are welcome!
