Inspirational Speaker and Spoken word Artist

Michelliah’s public speaking began at a very young age in church. From about the age of 10 she was preparing sermons to speak on youth Sunday. Her father would critique her sermons, and then she would practice speaking, using her family as her audience, and the center of her living room, as her stage. 

Sharpening her communication skills, in 2013, she earned a Certified Professional Speakers Certificate, and shortly after that, she produced her first spoken word CD, "Issues," a tribute to women.

Michelliah has been the keynote speaker for women and youth conferences, pastors' anniversaries, elementary graduations, youth, and community events throughout South Florida. Including, Miami Dade College and Job Corps (educating students about Domestic Violence). Because Michelliah is an overcomer of Domestic Violence, this topic, is a matter of the heart. So, get ready, get ready, get ready!

Inspirationally Speaking

Michelliah will exceed your expectations, with a tailor-made message or spoken word excerpt to match your theme.
