    ​Lisa Hazell Speaker Request Form

    ​Please complete and submit the form below to request me for your upcoming event. Due to scheduling constraints, I typically will not be able to accommodate requests for less than 1 month or more than 6 months in advance of an event. Please note that while I am always excited at the chance to speak to communities, customers, and partners for events, I receive such a high volume of requests that it's impossible for me to speak during every worthwhile event. Thanks so much for your interest.
