Story by Design
Presentation Training
My training blends foundational concepts with hands-on practice, so everyone walks away with both the knowledge and the confidence to present at a higher level. Participants will build practical skills in visual storytelling and design, learning how to structure a narrative, clean up their slides, and create presentations that actually move people to action. Follow-up office hours keep the learning going after the sessions wrap.

Each 3 hour training has two components: Storytelling & Design
1. Storytelling
Learn to structure presentations around a clear narrative, distill complex ideas into focused messages, and design slides that reinforce your story and keep audiences engaged.
Story Structure
Build presentations around a clear arc that takes audiences from problem to solution, so your message lands every time.
Data Storytelling
Turn numbers into insights by adding context and connecting data points to the decisions that matter most.
Executive Communication
Condense multi-slide narratives into sharp summaries that work for even the most time-pressed audiences.
Charts & Animation
Present charts without overwhelming your audience. Use animation strategically and control the flow of your story.
Slide Design
Apply storytelling techniques to design your own critical slides through structured practice and peer coaching.
Hands-On Lab
Put it all together - redesign your slides and deliver your presentation with instructor and peer feedback in real time.
Peer Feedback
Walk away with concrete, actionable input on both your design choices and your delivery from your peers.
2. Design & Hands-On Lab
Take your presentations to the next level with advanced techniques. This session digs into animation, slide design, and live delivery practice, all using your own slides, with real-time feedback from peers and the instructor.
The week following the training, we’ll have two 1-hour sessions designed to keep the momentum going. Bring your real work — whether it's a presentation in progress, a slide you're stuck on, or a specific challenge from the workshop — and get personalized feedback and guidance to keep leveling up your skills.
