President's Message

The NSA-DC Chapter is a resilient, inclusive, and committed organization that welcomes speakers from all walks of life. Representing members from the greater DC/MD/VA area, aka the “DMV” is our mainstay. The 2020-2021 chapter year, in the face of unprecedented circumstances taught us how to pivot, shift, and keep moving forward. We’ve learned to stretch and grow in different and exciting ways. As we continue to maneuver the everchanging realities of our world NSA-DC will continue to do what we do best, be the place where speakers go to grow their business.

The journey that lead me to NSA-DC began with a life transition to figure out my, “what’s next.” It began with our Speaker Academy. Little did I know the impact NSA-DC would have on my life once I said “YES;” one of the best decisions ever made. We have a path for you to build, grow, and prosper in the speaking industry. Is this your moment of change in a new direction?

The focus for the 2021-2022 chapter year is “Better Together.” When we work together for the better of our chapter, our community, and our businesses, our chances of surviving and thriving are always better. Together we will make a difference.

To find out where your place could be in the National Speakers Association and our Chapter, please contact our office or one of our Board Members.

We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to our community.

Sincerely,

Dr. Helen Holton, CPCC, PCC
