Lucy Virgen
Bank of the West VP/Area Manager

“I highly recommend Jessica Chang Consulting! Jessica was a huge help in preparing me for an important presentation that I had to deliver. Her approach and personable coaching was non-intimidating which made the experience very comfortable. The one-on-one sessions were a tremendous help because Jessica gave me valuable feedback and suggestions that were precise and effective.

Her services provided me with the insight needed to make a stronger connection with my audience. My presentation skills and confidence level have reached a higher level. I can now say that I enjoy public speaking!”

Theresa Fagundes
Owner of Fagundes Speech, Language and Communication Center

As a speech-language pathologist, I know a thing or two about speaking. Yet, when presented with a professional public speaking opportunity, I felt I needed my own “speech teacher”. I knew the basics but wanted a professional of Jessica Chang Irish’s caliber to coach me through this milestone.

From our first meeting, when Jessica welcomed me into her home with her dog, Cooper, in arms, to the late-night texts of acknowledgement after a job well done, Jessica was all that I hoped for and more. Her style is as professional and polished as it is warm. She reviewed my speech, offered editing suggestions, and provided feedback regarding my delivery. Mostly, she was a cheerleader who was never more than a phone call, email, or text away. 

Jessica demonstrated a keen ability to tap into my strengths to help me shine authentically. I highly recommend her services regardless of your current public speaking abilities. Her dual command of public speaking and coaching enable her to meet you where you are to enhance your performance by maximizing your strengths and developing your weaknesses.

Robert Barnhart
CEO of Yumm Clothing

“As the owner of Yumm Clothing, it’s important for me to explain my brand clearly to different audiences — from customers in high school to store owners and investors. Jessica helped me gain more confidence by working with me to figure out and practice my key messages while using more eye contact and less “ums.” Since working with Jessica, I’ve been able to develop relationships with retailers and arranged for five more stores to carry Yumm Clothing.”

Hien and his ChalkWild backpack

AnhViet “Charlie” Nguyen
Owner of ChalkWild

“As an Emmy-award winner in broadcasting, Jessica has used her skills to coach my 10-year-old son Hien, co-founder of our company ChalkWild, from being a shy boy into a poised person who can deliver a keynote speech in front of a couple hundred students, parents, and dignitaries with confidence and style. I am so proud of his accomplishments. Thanks to Jessica’s help, his ability to speak in front of a large audience has helped expose ChalkWild to more people.”

You’re stuck, overwhelmed, and nervous, and you need help finding your way forward.
