061 Monday Message - Keynote Speech
b'
Keynote Speech for\\xa0College of DuPage.
\\nI was asked to speak at the 1st\\xa0annual\\xa0College of DuPage\\xa0Exposed Photography Showcase.\\xa0It was an honor to speak for a little over 400 photography driven individuals. I tell a bit about my journey and segue to becoming an instructor and podcaster. Not before I play with the question \\u201cCan I make it as a photographer?\\u201d.
\\nI pulled out 3 minutes from an otherwise long speech. I think you can hear some excitement mixed with nerves as I share with the large group. Although it was a great practice to be inform of so many people. I would love to speak on a few different topics that I have been developing. A goal would be an hour talk for\\xa0WPPI. I want to burst out now with the topics but I think I\\u2019ll save them for a while or at least till\\xa0WPPI\\xa0invites me. :)
\\nEnjoy today\\u2019s Monday Message and tune in to Wednesday\\u2019s episode where I interview a photographer and WPPI speaker\\xa0Jacquelynn Buck.
\\nStay Cool and Happy Shooting!
\\nRob
