Motivational Speaker for Youth Leadership Group

Virgil came to speak with youth of all abilities about bullying and being someone that lives with a disability. He was wonderful to work with, reliable, punctuation, and communicated excellent. His speech was meaningful and kept the attention of the kids through out the whole experience. He was interactive and opened up for questions at the end which really sparked good conversation. Since his speech, the Non-Profit that Community Inclusion Program is under has asked him to be the key note speaker for a large conference for youth his upcoming March. I really enjoyed working with Virgil and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a great message.

About

My name is Virgil Seay. I recently located to Washington State from Knoxville Tennessee three year ago. When I was born I was diagnosed with Spina Bifida. The doctors told my mother that I wouldn't live past my first few months. Here I am! 42 years later. I want to bring awareness to Spina Bifida and inspire people to live their dreams and define the odds of the challenges in your life. Anything is possible with a good attitude.
