If you are looking for a speaker internationally recognized as "Engaging", "Inspirational", and "Empowering", inviting Socheata will provide that which you seek.
Socheata Poeuv is an incredibly powerful speaker. After several years of programming events at Washington & Jefferson College, I’ve never worked with a lecturer more poised and inspirational. Our students were unbelievably touched by her message, and left with a greater sense of their own purpose.Socheata empowered everyone in the room to be more aware of their own ability to make an impact in the world. As an individual, Socheata was fantastic and easy to work with, and I would love to have her back to campus in the future.
