Featured Speakers:

From ‘The Moth’
Neecol Resnin is a captivating storyteller, author, and speaker. Her stories tell of her journey from abject poverty, through multiple suicide attempts, and utter despair, to a life of dreams, destiny, and
fulfillment. She escaped the ghetto to an Ivy League education, masters degrees in clinical psychology and business, and a satisfying career as a Children's Social Worker. She lives in Los Angeles with four adopted special needs children.
Neecol is the president and founder of Born for More.

His Wired short story ‘The Cutting Edge’ was optioned twice for film. He was an interview subject in the documentaries ‘Bukowski: Born Into This’ and ‘Joe Frank: Somewhere Out There.’ He also co-authored the novel “The Shroud’ with his brother Steven.
