Described as a “visual speaking experience,” Atlanta-based attorney Patricia Russell-McCloud will share her engaging, highly substantive and well-researched speaking style with ۿ۴ý on Tuesday, Feb. 26 as part of ۿ۴ýUniversity’s continuing Lyceum Series.

During her 6 p.m. program in the University Chapel, she will demonstrate why her “big, broad and animated” speaking style and positive message leaves her audiences eager for more.

For the past 20-plus years, Russell-McCloud has toured the lecture circuit as a motivational speaker. She encourages her audiences to surmount every obstacle that stands between them and the possible. Her clients have included national nonprofit organizations, government entities, Fortune 500 companies — and everything in between. Each engagement has left audiences benefiting from her informed, inspirational wisdom and wit.

A native of Indianapolis, Russell-McCloud graduated from Kentucky State University before earning a law degree from Howard University’s School of Law. Before beginning her professional speaking career, she was an attorney with the Federal Communications Commission’s Complaints Branch for 10 years.
