Serial Entrepreneur, Former C-Suite Executive, Lifelong Musician, Community Servant to Keynote Speaker.

Michael M. Silva, Jr. is a unifier and a storyteller, with the positive power of our collective humanity as his guide. Whenever he speaks, whether on stage in front of thousands or in small gatherings of a few, he does so from the heart, with honesty and authenticity. He brings his life circumstances, his "human condition" with him every time. He will never allow his potential impact to be muted by fear of being vulnerable, for being human. He believes it's in these moments of collective vulnerability that deep bonds are built. "Deep bonds are built in quiet times so that they can be sustained in chaotic ones."

Service to others, service to his communities is his obsession.

My Story

Growing up in Albuquerque, NM, he always dreamed of making a big impact on the world. Discovering the saxophone in 4th grade changed his life. Discovering SKA music ignited a passion!

The 2-Tone SKA movement promoted community and racial unity. The songs spoke of friendship & anti-racism, two elements that have become cornerstones of his life.

The goal of racial prejudice is to break us down, to divide us. To keep the collective poor and steady bleeding. The answer, the oneness of humanity. This is the richness we need. When we do the work to first heal our own hearts, we can then bravely, boldly and confidently prevent the destruction of friendships and community. We can then sit at tables of justice as more than just the sum of an individual but as powerful unified communities. Michael is dedicated to helping others cultivate bold friendships then collectively & courageously standing & being counted for something larger than themselves.

Michael is the Co-Founder of an anti-racism organization and Founder of an organization that encourages men to recognize the value of male friendships. As a community organizer, he has organized community conversations between community members and the police, panel talks on unity and mentoring of youth in my community.

My Approach

Michael aims to empower individuals to overcome trauma, fear, obstacles that can get in the way of authentic friendship building. His mentors taught him that when the circle we keep is filled with people we value and cherish we are more committed to seizing our time in this life. We become determined to make a difference in our communities. Community can be one's family, work, neighborhood, the the city in which we live. He wants you to be as comfortable as he is with loving out loud.

If he encounters injustice he is focused on righting that wrong, not waiting for someone else to do it. Michael can help you become a principled not opportunistic leader.

My Speaking

Michael will lead you to understand that who you are in totality matters. That service to others is essential. That communities filled with people in service to something bigger than themselves will never let the warmth of one's individual success allow them to comfortably sit by while those around them suffer.

With a dynamic and interactive approach that will "shake the room" he delivers powerful messages that leave a lasting impact. Michael looks forward to speaking at your next event and taking your audience to the next level.
