Native American Storytelling
Dr. Rogerson has spent more than six years studying with and working with people of various Native American communities. She is also a featured storyteller for school and community events during Native American recognition weeks. In addition, she incorporates many of these "stories that teach and entertain" into her keynote and training presentations.

With a great sensitivity to spiritual traditions and the individual's need for guidance, her repertoire includes creation stories, morality stories, "ghost" stories, stories about the use and abuse of power, leadership, and about the power of love.
