Backstory
Early on Dr. Tonia realized she loved to speak and her effectiveness as a communicator was a key to opening doors and achieving success.
The demand for communication training, beyond academia, prompted the formation of Pala Communication in 2005, a consulting company that empowers professionals to attain new heights by improving verbal communication skills. Today she is the CEO of Phanor Consulting, where she works with individuals who are leaders in business, media, and entertainment to improve their communication skills.
