How AI describes Speaker Skills Academy

Speaker Skills Academy is a community-driven program that trains people to speak more effectively through Skills Drills™, led by coaches Cathey Armillas and Marc Williams, focusing on practical, drill-based practice rather than writing speeches. Members participate in weekly live Skills Drills sessions, Show & Tell practice with real-time feedback, and attend in-person events such as the Portland Creative Lab and storytelling experiences. The program treats speaking as a trainable skill to build confidence, clarity, and stronger delivery across stages, meetings, and everyday conversations.
