Meet our Keynote Speaker, Kat Simmons!

Kat Simmons is a 30 year veteran of the international comedy club circuit. You may have seen her at The Improvs, Catch A Rising Star, on the Comedy Channel, Fox’s Comedy Tonight, or on Candid Camera.  She has toured with The 3 Blonde Moms and won the eWomen Network's international talent contest in Dallas in 2009. 

Kat has a unique talent for combining physical comedy with real life situations that everyone can relate to. She has been favorably compared to the masters of the craft, Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett.  You may recognize yourself in some of her material as she shares honestly with the audience as though they were all her long time friends.  She delights in bringing to the stage the very things most people keep a secret.  She speaks the truth, making it easier for the rest of us to be honest with ourselves.

She has appeared with talents  Tim Allen, Kevin Nealon, Kenny Rogers, Rob Schneider, and the late, great legendary motivational speaker, Zig Ziglar.  She was chosen as the closing keynote for the California Women's Conference in Fresno this year where she appeared with Lisa Ling.

Kat has also been teaching stand up comedy workshops for twenty years.  She loves to help people discover their authentic voice, and give them the tools to use it with confidence. It is a joy for her to use her own spark to ignite yours. 

She has recently added author to her list with the publication of her first book, "Kat’s Daily Cups” a collection of stories about children, animals, and inspiration. It was a labor of love, as her teenage daughter served as illustrator. Kat says "If you have to write a book to spend time with your teenager, so be it."
