Speaking Engagements
Calling all colleges, universities, businesses and clubs:
I am available for in person or Zoom speaking engagements. These can be tailored to what you’d like to highlight during the session.
Colleges
I’d love to speak to classes, clubs and organizations about professional dress. I also teach at the college level, so I know this can be challenging with upperclassmen getting ready to enter the workforce.
Businesses
I’m happy to tailor the discussion to your needs, whether it is for journalism students needing to dress for TV, or business students learning to dress for interviews and jobs.
Do you need to enforce professional dress and don’t know how? I’m happy to speak to your employees to help bridge the gap to professional attire.
Individuals
Are you interested in elevating your look – whether it be to get promoted or looking for jobs? I can ABSOLUTELY help with that. Image matters! Let me help create a professional look for you!

"Colleen’s expertise in the area of professional dress was really beneficial for our students! She did an incredible job of emphasizing the importance of how you present yourself in a professional setting. Colleen gave great tips that could apply to everyone but also was kind enough to answer specific and unique questions that each student was concerned about. We look forward to working with Colleen again and having her share her wisdom with Auburn students!"
