John Verrico

Journalist, small-business consultant, public affairs specialist, stand-up comic, janitor, theater performer, electronics technician, disco dance instructor -- John Verrico still doesn't know what he wants to be when he grows up -- but has learned to experience everything life has to offer.
Former president of the National Association of Government Communicators, retired Navy Master Chief, and communication professional communicator with more than 40 years experience in media, community, and employee relations, John Verrico is now a high-energy, thought-provoking, and humorously nerdy international speaker and leadership coach. 
His programs are filled with humor, interactivity, and maybe even some magic as he helps people and organizations rediscover their inner motivational fire and to keep their TORCH light burning bright. 
He earned a Master's degree in Organizational Leadership from Norwich University and a Bachelor's in communication from the University of the State of New York.
