Plotts, Ph.D.

Hi! My name is Dr. Courtney Plotts, I have dedicated my career to educating and informing others about the ways in which cultural experiences shape cognition and how it affects student learning and academic success.

As a highly sought-after keynote speaker on neuroculture, cultural responsiveness, and acculturative stress, I am in a unique position to share your knowledge and expertise with a wide range of audiences. I have the ability to educate and inform others about the ways in which cultural experiences shape the brain and cognitive function, decision-making, learning, and leadership and the ways in which cultural experiences individuals’ experiences and opportunities.

A good keynote speech eliminates an audience, and doesn’t gaslight an audience.

As a keynote speaker on the topic of neuroculture, I recognize the difference.
