From Engineer to Communication Catalyst — Helping People Say It Better and Lead with Impact
I’m Lasada Pippen, a former engineer turned keynote speaker and communication coach. I help professionals, teams, and leaders say it better—so they can lead better, teach better, and connect more effectively. My mission is to help anyone who wants to improve their communication, regardless of their profession, background, or reason why. My journey from the tech world to the stage is rooted in resilience, reinvention, and a passion for helping others grow.

I speak to both school leaders and students, corporate teams and emerging professionals, equipping each audience with practical tools to communicate with clarity, show up with confidence, and lead with purpose.
