George Hametis
M.A.
NE, USIf you are looking for someone new and distinctive for your next event, take a moment to familiarize yourself with one of the Midwest's premiere up-and-coming motivational humorist speakers. George Hametis is the first U.S. born generation of his very Greek family. Growing up Greek meant that George's family owned a restaurant, because that's the law.
Mr. Hametis learned many lessons about life, diversity, overcoming obstacles, creating a loyal clientele, hiring and training strong teams, the importance of a sense of humor and creating a blueprint for success. It is these lessons that helped him move quickly up the corporate ladder.
A happily-married family man who did the unthinkable...married a non-Greek woman, George has brilliantly funny anecdotes about the joys of being married to his beautiful Norwegian wife, Angela. His personal life is a mix of the movie, My Big Fat Greek Wedding and the television show, Everybody Loves Raymond.

George has entertained and spoken for years, however in 2008 he became an award-winning professional speaker. He will leave your audiences with a smile and many great ways to make the most out of life, professionally and personally.
