Lead with Confidence

Negotiate with Ease

Communicate with Impact

Distrust poisons relationships, retention, and results. Close the trust gap using field-tested and scientific best practices. 

You have 50 milliseconds to make an impression on people who already have their guard up. Trust is at an all-time low, and people are looking for a reason to say no to you. 

Communicating trust depends on what you say and how you say it. That’s something Pamela learned working over twenty years in the criminal justice system: first as an undercover drug cop and later as a prosecuting attorney. 

Learn the secret second language reserved for communication experts and law enforcement to close the trust gap in your teams and organizations today.

Keynotes & Workshops

All keynotes and workshops are delivered with the right mix of stories, humor, and intrigue. Imagine learning about deception detection and body language techniques from a former undercover police officer and federal prosecutor.

With more than twenty years of experience working in the criminal justice system and two graduate degrees, Pamela’s combination of real-world experience and academic credentials makes her presentations unique and valuable for your audiences.

The participant’s get more than just a keynote or workshop. Pamela loves to interact with people, so she’s willing to do VIP receptions, small-group consultations, and meet and greets in conjunction with her keynotes and workshops.

Pamela has a unique background having worked deep undercover for years in the drug world, making hundreds of drug buys from street level to multiple six-figure buys. Couple that with her career as a federal prosecutor, and you have an intriguing and educated badass.
