I’m a queer typewriter poet and prize-winning author who has performed at large-scale venues, including college campuses, cultural centers and West Hollywood Pride. 

Being a typewriter poet is like peeking into someone’s story, and for a moment, helping them write it. In a world of AI and online shopping, typewriter poetry is a rare space where raw spontaneous connection still exists. 

As a poet, I craft memorable, immersive experiences and help people articulate what lives inside them. I’m friendly, disarming and endlessly curious about strangers. 

I also come dressed for the part, which can include costumes, stage makeup and vintage clothing.

My writing style: 
I specialize in haiku and contemporary poetry. My work is poignant yet relatable to wide audiences. I have 75k readers on Instagram (@poemsbysuri), and my book, But I Don’t Feel Empowered, is on shelves at Barnes & Noble and bookstores worldwide. 

Other offerings:
*workshops, 
*performances, 
*copywriting and

Genevieve was a successful television marketing executive in New York City until a sudden inner voice challenged her direction and she dramatically altered the path of her life. She found her true purpose when a simple question from a six-year-old girl in an emergency shelter changed everything. In 2001, she jumped off the corporate ladder and founded the hugely successful national nonprofit, Pajama Program, this year celebrating 25 years with a new name and expanded purpose, "Beyond Bedtime." To date the organization has delivered more than nine (9) million pajamas and books through its 40 chapters around the U.S. 

After 20 years as Executive Director, Genevieve passed the ED baton and created the Purpose ACER training program, and 12 Masterclasses, all focused on management excellence and team building. She has produced and hosted two national Purpose Summits in New York.

Genevieve’s first book, Purpose, Passion and Pajamas, How to Transform Your Life, Embrace the Human Connection and Lead with Meaning, is an Amazon bestseller and winner of 7 awards. This book lives in the Forbes Executive Library. The book’s message and Heart of the Matter life and leadership lessons after every chapter dovetail perfectly with our Nation’s growing interest in finding purpose and rekindling our human connection. Her TEDx talk: “1 Idea + The Human Connection = 7 million Pajamas” debuted with this book. Her second book, Purpose, Passion and Moxie: How to Lead the Way and Leave a Legacy, is a workbook to help you start a nonprofit from scratch to success. Book #3 is in the works! 
Today Genevieve teaches, speaks, and writes on how to Stop Bossing. Start Loving. because the world needs leaders who put people first. Her newsletter, Leading with Love - Tips from a Friend, offers heart-centered guidance designed to support modern leadership journeys.

In her presentation, Genevieve guides her audience in embracing four universal truths that ignite movements and build a lasting legacy through their impact on others.

Geneveve’s journey has taken her from Marketing VP in NYC’s television business to a little girl's q

It's not that technology is advancing too quickly. It's that human skills are advancing too slowly. There's no big mystery as to why trust, the #1 key to business, is experiencing a crisis during the artificial age. People want something REAL - and if you don't give it to them, then your competitors will.

Where there is human connection, there is real magic. Productivity improves in a way that science can't explain. Innovation strikes like lightning from a clear sky. Ordinary people transform into extraordinary teams. You don't have to wait or hope, this can be built.

Join award-winning mentalist, bestselling author, and top-rated speaker Tim David for an interactive, amazing, science-based, (and also HILARIOUS) program that helps participants experience how quickly authenticity, empathy, and trust can be built in teams using practical frameworks and action-items that can be applied immediately.

The Future Belongs to the Most HUMAN

"It was the largest attended Spring Leadership in the history of AWI and the conference as a whole received a 83 NPS, which is unbelievable still to me 3 weeks later.

I help leaders and organizations build the resilience, confidence, and human connection skills needed to thrive through change. My international award-winning storytelling, practical leadership strategies, and riotous humor help equip audiences with tools they can immediately apply to navigate uncertainty, strengthen relationships, and inspire others to act. My perspective is grounded in decades of executive leadership, higher education—and forever shaped by surviving a catastrophic spinal cord injury that left me paralyzed. That journey taught me that resilience is not a personality trait or a motivational slogan; it's a reflex that can be developed through intentional choices, authentic leadership, and meaningful human connection. Whether speaking on resilience, leadership, or the power of story, I challenge audiences to think differently, lead with greater purpose, and leave with practical ideas they can put to work the very next day.

Teams that work in an empowering culture are more innovative. So how do you inspire your leaders to be empowering and your teams to be innovative? They both start with one magic ingredient…Curiosity. 

For 18+ years, Nash walks a unique path as a professional magician by day and a crisis line volunteer by night. Both seemingly different paths taught him one unifying lesson: the power of curiosity. From the crisis line, Nash learned we can empower others by using our empathetic curiosity to listen, to understand, and support. From creating illusions, he learned how curiosity is the spark that drives innovative ideas.

Now as an award-winning TEDx keynote speaker, he unveils the curtain and teaches leaders how to channel their empathetic curiosity to create an empowering human-centric culture; and inspire teams to adapt curiosity-based strategies to drive in more innovative ideas. 

In both keynotes, Nash uses magic, engaging stories, and interactive exercises to guide his audiences to experience the key messages. His presentations had inspired global audiences like Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, TEDx stage etc..  People are the heartbeat of your organization, if you are equally interested in inspiring them to be more curious, innovative, and empowering for each other, let’s have a conversation!

Curiosity Keynote Speaker who uses magic to inspire

Curiosity Keynote Speaker & Magician

"The presentation went above and beyond the expectations – to be able to incorporate our leadership principles into it whilst also making it fun and interactive was so impressive"

Phoebe Dunn, Amazon - EMEA division

“Nash was one of our highest rated speakers at our Intern Day global summit. His keynote was unique, engaging, and so much fun; it was the perfect kickoff for our conference! We love how he tailored our Amazon Leadership Principles into his presentation which really connected with our audience! ”

Davilla Gose -Program Manager - Amazon

“Nash doesn’t just create magic on stage, his real magic is in his preparations. Weeks prior to our event, he was working with our leadership team to fully immerse himself with our team’s challenges, event goal, and messaging needs.

The day before the event, he came to set up the stage and worked with our A/V team to ensure everything would run smoothly. 

As planners, we really appreciate the peace of mind his dedication & preparations provided us.
It was no surprise that on the day of our event, we were able to sit back and watch his keynote hit every benchmark we envisioned.

The only people who were surprised? Our attendees. At first some were unsure what they could learn from a magician, by the end they were all pleasantly surprised that his tips on curiosity & innovative thinking were highly tangible and relevant to their roles at Microsoft. 

Nash came prepared, dedicated himself to our event goal, crafted an engaging & inspiring keynote that delivered OUR message! We highly recommend him, you’ll love working with him.”

Gianna Gaudini spent two decades designing some of the most memorable experiences in technology, finance and luxury - leading events and executive programs for Google, AWS, Airtable, SoftBank Vision Fund and organizations like YPO. That work left her with an unusual insight: the same principles that make an event unforgettable can make an ordinary life unforgettable too.
Now, as founder of Gianna Gaudini, LLC, she translates the psychology of event design - anticipation, surprise, ritual, meaning-making - into a framework for everyday living. She helps individuals and organizations fight burnout, create more intentional experiences with their customers and employees, and infuse joy and delight into moments at risk of being flattened by repetition (or) forgotten due to habituation).

She's the Amazon best-selling author of The Art of Event Planning, teaches at six universities, sits on the advisory board of five event-industry startups, and speaks internationally on the science and art of memorable experience design
Her Signature Talk “Your Life Is The Event - Make It Worth Attending guides people to live the days in between more meaningfully and will be delivered on the TED stage in 2027.

Your Life Is The Event - Make it Worth Attending (a framework from Google's Head of Events)

Gianna Gaudini

“Gianna has been formative in how I think about and execute events and how she creates an experience in a keynote in and of itself.  I'm truly grateful for her influence and leadership. Her impact will continue to show up in the programs we run going forward. Thank you, Gianna, for the thoughtfulness, flexibility, and partnership you brought to the team.”

— Zach Diamond, Head of Revenue Marketing, Cognition AI

“Gianna is the whole package when it comes to a speaker. She connects with listeners and delivers a relevant message with uncommon magnetism. Best of all, Gianna promises an experience for your audience that is meaningful and memorable and goes far beyond the usual keynote speaker. Today’s audiences are desperate to engage and be moved–they don’t want to be talked at or lectured to. Gianna is a master at this. ”

- Jen Oliver, TEDx Executive Producer, Event Curator, Podcaster

“Bringing Gianna on to speak at our all-employee event truly changed the game for us. She brought vision, organization, and critical events expertise, and the leadership and polish we needed to ensure a successful event that met all of our objectives. Thank you Gianna!”

Kristin Ericksen is a keynote speaker, TEDx speaker, and peak performance coach with more than 25 years of experience coaching 3,000+ clients across 20+ industries, including celebrities, elite athletes, executives, and entrepreneurs.

Peak performance is in Kristin's DNA. She grew up around it, watching her father, a strength coach for the Utah Jazz, train NBA greats like Karl Malone and John Stockton. That early education shaped a 25-year career at the intersection of fitness, kinesiology, and human performance, where she optimized the bodies and wellbeing of some of the most recognizable names in entertainment, including Linda Hamilton, Cindy Crawford, Olivia Newton-John, Jerry Bruckheimer, Jeff Goldblum, and Gary Sinise.

When she lost her fitness business overnight, Kristin rebuilt in a completely new industry. Within 18 months, she rose to the top 2% in sales for a leading financial services company. She knows the drive to achieve from the inside, along with the decisions that make performance sustainable, especially when circumstances change.

We measure results, revenue, and return on investment. Kristin believes those numbers tell only part of the story. Her Return on Energy perspective asks people to examine what they spend to produce those results and what that investment is doing to their health, relationships, and ability to keep performing when the pressure rises and the ground shifts.

On stage, Kristin speaks to corporate and association audiences, leaders, high-performing teams, and women in business about how to sustain peak performance through change, uncertainty, and difficult times: performing under pressure, protecting their energy, building resilience, avoiding burnout, and leading through transition. Through personal stories, humor, and audience interaction, she challenges people to ask: "Is the energy I'm spending worth what I'm getting, and is what I'm getting worth what it's costing me?"

Audiences leave with a way to spot where their energy is being drained, rethink what they have been calling success, and make a more deliberate choice about where to invest themselves next, so they can keep performing at their peak no matter what changes around them.

Your energy is always becoming something.

It is with great pleasure that I extend my wholehearted recommendation for Marvelless Mark, also known as "The Business Rock Star," as a keynote or featured speaker for your upcoming business events. I had the distinct honor of working closely with Mark at the National Apartment Association's Apartmentalize in 2023, where he served as our featured speaker for supplier partners.

Mark possesses a unique ability to captivate and engage audiences, leaving an indelible mark on each attendee. His presentation at Apartmentalize was a masterclass in inspiration and motivation, as he skillfully encouraged every member of the audience to unleash their inner Rock Star within the context of their professional and personal lives. His dynamic and energetic style resonated deeply with the diverse audience, creating an electrifying atmosphere that carried the positive energy throughout the entire event.

Mindy Price - Transformational Real Estate Investing

Mark's performance was nothing short of electrifying. He brought extraordinary energy to the stage, captivating our dealers and franchisees with his innovative rock band analogy applied to the business world. Mark’s ability to draw parallels between the synergy of a rock band and a successful business team was both engaging and enlightening. He has a natural talent for tapping into the core of corporate culture, invigorating it with a rock 'n' roll spirit that resonates with everyone. His keynote was the highlight of our event, offering entertainment and insightful strategies that attendees could apply directly.

This experience is a custom blend of many art forms, totally customizable to your event format and scale.

Two core elements align to create an unforgettably positive sensation in each guest, and a unique gift to walk away with and keep forever.

First, a trained artist sits with the guest and helps them select a scarf, handkerchief, or pashmina of their choosing, in a hue and pattern aligned with their coloring, style, and energy.

Then, the guest is invited to choose from an array of positive and inspiring brooches or pins (these can be made in advance or customized on the spot) to pair perfectly with their textile gift.

Perfect for environments where outdoor climates can be hot and sweaty or bring a chill in the air, and for groups who like to tap into their creativity and emotions without being too energy or time-intensive.

Swiss Army knife-storyteller: intersectional themes, multidisciplinary poetry

Saaret E. Yoseph

Saaret has remained a dedicated and creative storyteller. I highly commend her ambition to document the narratives and complex social dynamics that shape diasporic relations. Saaret maintains a depth of artistic and qualitative research experience, and she possesses a unique combination of dialogical openness, critical engagement, and advanced creative production skills.

J.R. (Wayne) Osborn - Georgetown University

Saaret is an extremely talented filmmaker and media teaching artist that has worked as a freelance media teaching artist with Meridian Hill Pictures.  She co-facilitated two documentary filmmaking/media arts residencies for Meridian Hill Pictures.  Saaret was handed a very difficult project that required her to facilitate a brand new pilot residency that walked a dozen middle and high school students through a transmedia storytelling project  The expectations for Saaret were very high as she was facilitating the third year of an award-winning youth media arts program run by Meridian Hill Pictures and Sitar Arts Center called YouthDocs.  She was able to simplify a very complicated process of creating 6 micro-documentaries for an online visual storytelling map with a dozen high school and middle school students.  She is extremely dedicated and passionate about producing visual stories.  It is very clear that this is her life's work and she believes in it.

Brandon Kramer - Meridian Hill Pictures

We have been fortunate to have Saaret serve as a media teaching artist on several youth media projects at Meridian Hill Pictures. In each instance, Saaret has been extremely creative, reliable and hard-working. Saaret is a gifted storyteller and the rare kind of filmmaker who can also thrive in a community-based setting as an educator and facilitator. Her sensitivity, empathy and ability to connect with young people of all backgrounds is impressive. With Saaret's support and guidance, I have witnessed dozens of young people who have never before make a film create a range of excellent short-form and transmedia documentary projects. I enthusiastically recommend Saaret.

Lance Kramer - Meridian Hill Pictures

I try to work with Saaret at every opportunity. She is the ultimate team player, sunny, warm and hyper-skilled, always able to find a way to pull off a project, no matter what obstacles arise. Her range of skills keeps growing every time we reconnect.  I have seen her write, edit copy, wrangle writers and photographers, edit video, produce websites, teach students, conceptualize video treatments, pull off PR/marketing campaigns, all with a great polish. She is amazing.
