About

Teacher, adjudicator, writer and communications consultant, Ron is well-known throughout Canada and the USA. He taught acting for stage and media for 47 years at Sheridan College.

Concurrently, he began private coaching to help presenters develop their vocal and personal skills for public speaking. Working as vocal coach with CTV photojournalists, CBC-TV and radio, he branched into distance education, telecommunication, on-camera coaching, use of teleprompters, and preparing oneself for interviews in TV studio settings.

Ron uses improvisation to coach leaders facing high-stakes media interviews. He is grateful to the palliative care world since his mother’s terminal illness 30 years ago, and his sister’s unexpected death 10 years ago.
