Typically 45-90 minutes for keynotes, conference, and breakout sessions. Presentations extending beyond 90 minutes are best suited in a workshop environment (Two hours, half-day, or full-day) where interacting with smaller groups promotes added participant conversation and discussion, thereby reinforcing concepts and real-world applications.

Absolutely! The foundation of my presentations is the personal story surrounding my fraudulent activity—what I did, how I did it, and most important, why it went undetected for eight years. After completing the Pre-Program Questionnaire, we will discuss creating original content with customized takeaways to ensure my presentation is consistent with your event’s message and inspires your audience to action.

I welcome the opportunity to answer any questions and will stay until the last question is addressed. When time constraints limit the Q&A session, I will personally respond to every email and text question. Audiences appreciate my willingness and honesty to explain, in detail, my series of bad decisions and paralyzing fear to ask for help. Event and meeting planners are encouraged to allocate ample time for a "Q&A' session because it is well-received by audiences.

I answer all questions from the "Whys" and "Hows" of my fraud and life-saving and changing experience in Federal prison to my passion of being an investment fraud prevention advocate, and everything in between. I demonstrate my pledge of absolute transparency by being candid and honest about every aspect of my life. Audiences want to better understand fraudster psychology — the thought process behind making consistently bad decisions despite knowing that those decisions violate ethical standards and clearly break the law. The majority of questions relate to the “Whys” and “Hows” of my crime. Why I made that very first bad decision to hide my trading losses? Why not just be honest with my investors? How I mislead everyone for so long? How I was able to live with myself knowing that my fraud could be discovered at any time? And, humorous as it may sound, why I voluntarily disclosed my fraudulent activity to the U.S. Government and blindly turned myself into authorities instead of permanently leaving the country and absconding with the money?

Since serving my sentence, I have started the next chapter of my life. I am grateful for the opportunity to use my financial industry experience, and regrettably, intimate knowledge of investment fraud to raise awareness and help prevent others from falling victim to the devastating financial, emotional, reputational, and legacy consequences of fraudulent activity. Although nothing can reverse my past decisions and actions or the pain it has caused my victims, my actions demonstrate my motivation as an investment fraud prevention advocate. I am passionate to educate investors and financial professionals alike — teaching strategies to identify the real warning signals of investment fraud to avoid becoming a victim and incurring significant losses to either outright fraudsters or those licensed financial industry professionals who employ dishonest and deceptive business practices. By opening a window into my life and sharing my years of experience misleading clients and financial professionals alike, I hope to reconcile with my community and society and atone for my financial crime.
