Lasada Pippen, also known as LP, has experienced his fair share of adversity, growing up as the youngest child in a family that often struggled to make ends meet. As the son of high school graduates who never had the opportunity to pursue a college degree, he didn’t always have access to the same resources as many of his peers, but he never let that stop him from following his dreams.

Determined to succeed despite the obstacles before him, LP continued to take steps necessary to propel forward, ultimately furthering his education with the support of his parents and proudly becoming a bilingual 1st generation college graduate. He would then become a Senior Level Tech and Engineering Expert, excelling in the industry until he decided to make a career shift and take advantage of the opportunity to become a keynote speaker. The decision to switch careers came after LP began recognizing his genuine passion for public speaking. Standing in front of a crowd came naturally to him as someone with a natural gift for sharing relatable stories that can keep listeners engaged and on the edge of their seats the entire time.

Known for his dynamic personality and refusal to let past mistakes hold him back, LP looks forward to sharing his firsthand experiences with those around him. As a dedicated motivational keynote speaker, he spends most of his time inspiring the next generation and the professionals who lead them, such as educators and school staff. He has already discussed one of his favorite topics, Finding Your Why to Discover Your How, with thousands of people, encouraging his audiences to find their purpose and go for what they want in life, even if it feels too far out of reach at that moment.

LP leads by example when encouraging others to find their why as someone who has done the same in his personal and professional life. For example, upon discovering that public speaking was his real purpose, not tech and engineering, he was fearless in making a significant shift, tackling that genuine fear of the unknown head-on instead of allowing it to hold him back from doing what he felt was his calling.

When he’s not attending events and building deep connections with his audience to uplift them, LP enjoys spending quality time with his beautiful wife, Eliana, and his two incredible children. Much like he does with his audience, he encourages his children to explore different opportunities to identify their skills and talents and find the things that leave them feeling complete.
