With 10 years as a
top producer and Vice President of a top-ranked speaker’s bureau, Christa has
established herself as a ‘go-to’ speaker agent and a meetings industry
professional. After finishing her time on the “flipside” of the
industry, her list of hand-picked speakers comprises the roster of CMI Speaker Management. She
has worked with all manner of talent, providing keynote speakers and A-list
corporate entertainment to hundreds of groups, spanning Fortune 50 to
non-profits internationally. Add to that her two brothers, both of whom
are both professional speakers, and it’s obvious that the industry of
professional speaking is ‘in her blood’! Christa eagerly joined the CMI Speaker Management family in 2007, and counts it a privilege to
work with some of the greatest professional keynote speakers and talent our
industry has to offer, and to be part of CMI Speaker Management - the all-time best speaker and
entertainment management team in the world! Christa resides in Dallas, TX
with her husband and two perfect children.

Consultant, Motivational Speaker, Inductee into the Speaker Hall of Fame,

to Olympian in four years model

Vince authored of The Age Of Speed, which recently
went best-seller with NYT / WSJ / USA Today and Amazon. He has a brilliant business
mind with a great sense of humor and an uncommon ability to relate to “C” Suite
execs and front-line alike. Vince is an anomaly in this industry because
of the dichotomy within his own story. As a non-athlete, Vince took his
business success principles and applied them to the sport of speed skiing,
going from recreational skier to Olympic athlete in just four years, making the
gold-medal round in the 1992 Olympics. He is a rare individual – he has
repeatedly proven that the SPEED principles in his book work - he lives them
and uses them for his own incredible success.
