Speaking
Book me to speak — corporate teams, conferences, and stages that want the real thing.
Invite Kelvin to SpeakI'm Kelvin Crosby. A potter who happens to be deafblind.
I live with Usher syndrome type 2 — born hard of hearing, my vision now like looking through wax paper. I work by feel, on a potter's wheel, and the clay becomes the story — the same shaping this thing called life puts all of us through. To be shaped, you have to be thrown on the wheel.
Motivational Speaker. Live Pottery Shaping. Suicide & Addiction Prevention.
Are you willing to be thrown on the wheel — to change the world? You matter. I see you.
Invite Kelvin to SpeakStay on the Wheel of Life
For five years, I've spoken at Intuit more than once, at AccessU, and on stages across the country — with one focus: helping people stay on the wheel of life and take on whatever's next. It comes down to suicide and addiction prevention, and I work it out one piece of pottery at a time. From big stages to small homeless shelters, I bring the same wheel — because every soul matters to a potter, and every piece of clay has a purpose.
Ways to Work With Me
Pottery Healing
A one-on-one experience: you shape a piece of pottery while working through a season you're in now, or one you've carried for a while. Some things are easier to process with your hands.

I was born hard of hearing. That wasn't a choice — mine or anyone's. But my parents made one: they decided to raise me as a hearing child. Hearing aids. Speech therapy. Years of appointments before I even understood what they were preparing me for. I didn't choose how my story started. I only got to choose what I did with it.
What Shape Are You?
This life is the potter, and we're the clay — every hard season either breaks you or shapes you. I chose to be shaped. My challenges didn't stop me — they turned into three things: sitting one-on-one with people to help them heal through clay, the ministry I lead as the DeafBlind Potter, and an invention built to keep blind people from being hit by cars, a risk 1 in 3 of us face. I didn't just survive it. I built something out of it.
