Collisions of Awesomeness

Life is too short, work should be fun. Let me show you how!

About Me

My name is Jill B. It’s really Jill Brown, but Jill B. better suits me. You’ll see.

I believe life is too short, work should be fun, and food on a stick is best enjoyed with friends.

I specialize in presentations focused on the power of networking and gratitude that are equal parts learning and laughter.

I’m a Nebraska farm kid, who calls Missouri home with my husband and daughter.

My career has been in higher education, with an emphasis in student development, agriculture, fundraising and employer partnerships.

I’m excited to learn and laugh with you, whether that be virtual or in-person!

Collisions of Awesomeness?

Making friends was easier when we were kids. You could literally just bump into someone and ask them if they want to play. Too bad this doesn’t work as we grow up. Or, does it? No, I’m not suggesting you walk around literally bumping into others, but are there opportunities for collisions of awesomeness in your life? I think so and I consider myself a bit of Collision Specialist after years of “fiery crashes”. Through a little bit of learning, and a whole lot of laughter, we will discover ways to create collisions of awesomeness on your road of life.
