Speaker Bio
Othell J. Miller is a passionate and innovative professional artist, author, educator, and entrepreneur dedicated to meeting humanity's need for enlightening, empowering, and entertaining art. Othell has been seriously engaged in the art and craft of theater since a teen. Subsequently, he pursued two theater-related degrees, a BS in Speech Communications & Theater from Tennessee State University and an MFA in Acting from Rutgers, Mason Gross School of the Arts.

Othell has performed in or directed numerous theater productions as well as taught Acting & Public Speaking for the last 24 years, both on a collegiate and secondary school level. Additionally, through his business, OJM International, he has conducted communication workshops for corporations, small businesses, universities, and churches.

Othell's primary objective as an artist/educator is to foster in others both self-awareness and a greater understanding of the human condition. He believes meaningful, technically sound public speaking, acting, or speech instruction equips individuals to both perform at high levels and display a clearer comprehension of themselves.

He is most concerned with speakers and actors delivering authenticity on stage or on screen. Therefore, his work pushes the speaker and/or actor to develop a strong sense of truth. Moreover, realizing analysis and interpretation precedes strong performance, he trains speakers to effectively score and interpret their speeches and actors to bravely connect with other actors and the circumstances of their scripts.

Lastly, Othell is invested in the development and use of both precise diction and a natural, confident, and compelling voice.
