Speaking & Events
One of my passions is telling stories! From being an educator for over 20 years I have discovered that I have whats eloquently called the 'Gift of the Gab' in England. When I teach I use stories to get across what I wish for my students to learn and I have been fortunate enough to speak about what I am passionate about on the TEDx platform, at many institutes of higher education and for non profits in Los Angeles, Pacific Northwest, Midwest and England.

Testimonials;
"I invited Paul to speak at HappyCity's W+ell Beyond Summit after seeing his TEDx talk on Cognitive Kali. At the Summit, his talk about the importance of play had people out of their seats, interacting, playing, and laughing. All this backed up by his incredible depth of knowledge around the neuroscience of play. Paul's unique background in martial arts and physical education, and his interest and studies in neuroplasticity combined with his natural ability to connect with and engage an audience created an incredible experience for our attendees." - Van Lai-DuMone (Corporate Trainer Specializing in Creative Thinking I Certified LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Facilitator)
