About the Instructor

As a UO student, Andrew Weiss decided to join the public speaking club Toastmasters. When he competed in his first competition, he won second place out of two people. Feeling embarrassed, he knew he needed to dive deeper into what it took to persuade an audience. After researching countless hours of books and resources, he became president of the club, doubled its membership, and the very next year was voted the top public speaker in Central and Southern Oregon at 22 years old.

Since then he's hosted virtual conferences so large that they have broken Guinness World Records! He's passionate about helping people find their voice and confidently present in their own unique style.
