Making it to the finals was an incredible achievement. It was an honor to compete with such a group of talented speakers. Although I did not come out on top, I learned a lot and am grateful to be considered one of the top 7 speakers in the world in Toastmasters. Thanks to all my family, friends, fellow Toastmasters and supporters who donated money, time, energy, and kept me going with good thoughts, prayers and love. The convention next year is in Las Vegas. I hope to return to the finals again. Until then, I'll keep speaking!

I haven't competed in a speaking competition since high school. I signed up for the Toastmasters International speech competition in two events: "International Speech" and "Table Topics." I am happy to announce that I won both events at my East Bay Toastmasters club. I'll be representing us at the Area contest on March 13th. I am honored to represent our club and look forward to the next round. Thanks to all for your support.
