Changing Lives by Disrupting the Educational Norm

Award-winning leader and school turnaround expert Hamish Brewer (aka the Tattooed Skateboarding Principal) knows what it means to come from a home disrupted by poverty, addiction, and family dysfunction. He understands the feelings of fear and desperation that overwhelm too many children today—because that was his life. That experience has driven him to work relentlessly to empower people living in the toughest conditions to envision and create a better future for themselves. During this inspiring, high-octane presentation, Hamish will share his secrets to success, providing practical solutions and ideas to address the challenges educators face today and change the lives of students.
