At age 23, Josh’s refreshing blend of energy and humor will connect with students on their level. He shares stories about losing his leg to cancer, ski racing in the Paralympics, and playing practical jokes with his artificial leg to give practical motivation for overcoming adversity and goal setting. Josh's presentations are extremely high energy—during a single keynote he will run, sing, dance, free-style rap and jump off the stage several times. He uses this excitement to focus students' attention on his core message: The secrets of great student leaders.
