Hello, I’m Ed!
I’m a professional speaker, trainer and co-founder of Project Charisma.
I’m passionate about helping professionals overcome their speaking fears, develop powerful communication skills, and express themselves authentically.
I know first-hand how it feels to be held back by nerves.
In my 20s, I developed severe social anxiety, making public speaking my worst nightmare.
But avoiding things only made it worse, and eventually, I realized the only way to beat my fears was to face them.
My journey to overcome anxiety led me to perform as a professional actor in theatres around the world, become a Toastmasters Club President, and ultimately to launching Project Charisma.
Today, I find public speaking an enjoyable and rewarding experience – something that’s brought so much value to my life.
