Meet Patricia
and Shanks for Speaking

Charisma isn't a costume. It's who you are on the inside that you allow those on the outside to see.

Shanks for Speaking is about talking for your organization or group.

Hello! My name is Patricia Shanks. An inspirational speaker and generalist with particular interests in art, music, writing, travel, and animals, I am available to speak to your group or organization on a variety of topics. I am a teacher, business manager, television and radio host, actor, musician, Emmy Award-winning writer, and journalist. I bring a veritable smorgasbord of life and work expertise to my speaking practice.

Speak to me.

 

Let me know how I can help you. Describe your needs. I'd be happy to discuss speaking before your group or organization.
