With a background in marketing at Disney and a love for all things technology, Josh Ochs combines both to help teens and tweens use social media as a portfolio of positive accomplishments. Josh travels the nation speaking to over 30,000 kids each year sharing with them tips they can use to create a positive online presence. Josh's book: "Light, Bright and Polite for Teens" teaches kids of all ages that everything they post on social media will eventually be discovered by their parents, teachers, their school Principal and someday colleges and employers. He shows families and teenagers practical examples they can use to always keep it "Light, Bright and Polite" on by posting photos of community volunteer projects that will help them shine online.

This event is open to the public and there is no cost to attend!
