    Biography

    Jade Simmons is a born storyteller, a classically trained pianist, and a creator of transformational experiences designed to activate audiences into becoming the biggest, boldest version of themselves possible.

    The world-class concert artist has been called a “musical force of nature” with an “uncanny ability to connect with the sounds of today.” Nicknamed “Classical Music’s #1 Maverick,” Jade’s electrifying, genre-bending concert adventures span Rachmaninoff all the way to rap and include virtuoso storytelling, uncommon insights, and boundless inspiration.

    As the daughter of a civil rights activist, Jade learned a lot about choosing her battles by watching her father vehemently fight them all. Equally a product of her mother’s faith-focused child-rearing, Jade speaks passionately about the role purpose-based living has played in building her life and her diversified career. Jade trained in piano performance at Northwestern and Rice Universities. On stage, she delivers stunning main-stage keynote presentations with a potent combination of music, virtuoso performance, and riveting storytelling.

    A top-notch “experiential” speaker who uses music to powerfully drive her points home, Jade’s specialty is activating a renewed and redefined sense of purpose. She speaks on cultivating innovation and originality, the strategies behind audacious leadership, and she offers takeaways that unleash momentum in life and business.

    Simmons has performed at The White House, and she received the Sphinx Organization’s Medal of Excellence in a concert hosted by Justice Sonia Sotomayor and held at the US Supreme Court.
