Getting our story right can be complicated or confusing. When we are asked about what we do, or what we are trying to achieve, often we get tongue-tied and become our own worst enemy.

In this fast-paced session, expert storyteller Ashley Evenson reveals tips, tricks and exercises to help craft stories of upcoming projects, ideas, businesses - or even the story of ourselves. So the next time you need to craft a pitch, introduce yourself at a networking event or launch your product, you will have the tools to craft a story that means something to you, your team, and most importantly your audience.

Ashley Evenson founded Oval Productions in 2016 as a means to create more connection through communities. After a twenty-year career writing and producing live events in the theatre industry, Ashley looked to find different uses of storytelling to build confidence and self-esteem within her clients. She has worked with universities, social enterprises, youth centres and community groups to unveil the beauty and confidence in each individual.
