When you book Gene for an event, you can expect an engaging mix of storytelling, practical insights, and real-world applications.

Gene takes pride in working as a true partner, tailoring each talk to meet the unique goals of your event and audience. Expect professionalism, flexibility, and a speaker who ensures your attendees leave as better people than when they arrived.

Drawing from his travels, adversities, and real-world experience both on stage and in the office, Gene is a great fit for diverse audiences—from large conferences and executive boardrooms to university students and high schoolers, and everything in between.

Whether you're an artist, entrepreneur, or corporate leader, Gene’s talks offer fresh perspectives that will leave you feeling inspired, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to make a lasting impact.

To ensure a seamless experience, here’s what Gene typically needs for his talks:
- A microphone (wireless lapel or handheld)
- Projector and screen for slides/videos
- A stage or speaking area with a podium or small table
- Adequate lighting in the speaking area for visibility and engagement
- A point of contact for technical support on-site to assist with AV needs during setup and throughout the event

Gene is happy to adapt his setup needs based on the specific requirements of your event. Please feel free to reach out ahead of time if you have any specific questions or requests!

Gene can also provide sound equipment for your event, which will require an additional fee and time for setup.
