John Verrico
Journalist, stand-up comic, janitor, theater performer, electronics technician, business consultant, disco dance instructor.

Former president of the National Association of Government Communicators and Navy Master Chief, John retired from 42 years as a communication professional in media, community, and employee relations. As founder of Share Your Fire, John is now a high-energy, thought-provoking, and humorously nerdy international speaker and leadership coach. He is a nine-time international best-selling contributing author and holds a Masters degree in Organizational Leadership, and a Bachelors in Communication.
