Four keynotes he brings to the stage

The Brain-Body Connection

The upper cervical spine — the atlas and axis — has an outsized influence on the nervous system. This keynote walks audiences through the anatomy in plain language, then shows what modern imaging and functional neurology reveal about optimizing focus, balance, energy, and long-term brain health through the craniocervical junction.

Root-Cause Wellness

Symptom management is exhausting patients and clinicians alike. This talk lays out a framework for identifying what's actually driving chronic pain, brain fog, vertigo, and unexplained fatigue — and why the answer is often further upstream than practitioners are looking.

Peak Cognitive Performance

A corporate-friendly keynote for leaders and high-performing teams. Covers the neuroscience of focus, resilience, and mental clarity in real work — brain fog, sleep architecture, sensory load, and the practical daily habits that separate people who fade under pressure from people who don't.

Stewarding a Child's Brain

Drawn from his book with Dr. Ethan Surprenant. What parents, educators, and pediatric clinicians need to know about neurodevelopment from conception through adolescence — early warning signs, ADHD and sensory processing, and the everyday environmental choices that shape a child's neurological future.
