Competent Communicator: On the importance of storytelling

"Julie's Keynote was an inspiring and invigorating start to our Creative Ageing Day, with the stories and experiences which she shared successfully bringing a broad group of delegates on board to fully engage with the activities and sessions on offer.

As a storyteller and speaker her wholehearted zest humour and creativity is evident as a driving force throughout her own life, work and latterly in her responses to the ageing process. This is the Kertesz 'touch' from which many of our delegates drew strength and encouragement to take some of their own creative risks!"

Gillian Steel - Senior Cultural Coordinator, South Ayrshire Council"

About me

80 old, living in London. I begun this blog when I finished my Competent Comunicator Manual at Toastmasters.

Retired, but very active: photographing, telling live personal stories, standup comedy, keynotes and workshops.

I started Gigging at age 77 ! Now over the 77th gigs in different comedy clubs, mostly in London, but also Paris, Leicester, Canterbury, even in Las Vegas I succeed to make audience laugh.

Continue taking photos and telling true stories and giving workshops on Comedy and Storytelling.
