I have regularly spoken in public on a wide variety of topics relating to technology, the Internet and naval affairs for several years. A favorite and often-requested topic is “How to Effectively Search the World Wide Web” which I will tailor specifically for your association, company or group. Dynamic, funny and outspoken, I particularly excel at making technology accessible to non-technical folks. I am available for luncheon as well as evening speaking engagements throughout the midwest and I will travel, too.

Here's a few of the groups I have spoken for over the last few years:

• American Society of Civil Engineers
• Chicago Area Translators and Interpreters Association
• American Society of Mechanical Engineers
• Naperville Chamber of Commerce
• Society of Automotive Engineers
• Institute of Electronic and Electrical Engineers
• Chicago High School Library Media Association
• Institute of Transportation Engineers
• Independent Writers of Chicago
• Western Society of Engineers Young Engineers Forum
• Corporate Dynamics Incorporated Midwest Training Conference

Here's what folks had to say about a recent speaking engagement:

• “Great speaker, easy to understand, makes complex information simple to figure out; good examples.”
• “This was great – thank you!”
• “Great public speaker, easy to understand. I sat in the back of the room and I could hear everything. I liked the humor”
• ”I thought Ray was an excellent presenter! He really knew what he was talking about.”
