Satisfied Event Planners with Fabian

Fabian Ramirez, M.A.

Fabian Ramirez is a renowned speaker based out of Washington, DC. Fabian was bullied in middle school, so he understands the psychological impact that bullying can have on people.

Fabian’s personal mission is to get in front of as many educators as possible and share his message and ways to prevent and eliminate bullying behavior on campuses across the United States. If you are an event planner, Fabian would love to be considered as a keynote speaker or trainer for your next event with educators. He is one of the best motivational speakers for teachers in the country. His anti-bullying program has helped thousands of schools and administrators across 48 states and Canada.

Motivational Comedian

When was the last time your audience truly belly laughed? To stay fresh & relevant for Educators, Fabian continues to work on his comedy bits at the DC Improv, the place where Dave Chappelle started. His opening comedy routine for Educators, is second to none. Fabian uses comedy the same way a surgeon would use anesthesia before going deep, he knocks out his audience with laughter and then brings a serious message before ending his presentation on a high note.

Public School Education

Fabian is a product of the Houston Independent School District system. Fabian attended all Title I schools and now he gets to speak at them. His education started at Southmayd Elementary where he went to school from pre-K to third grade. A new school opened up close to where his parents lived at the time and so for fourth through sixth grade he attended Davila Elementary school.

Then Fabian attended Deady Middle school and went on to graduate from Milby High school. He was an average to below average student. He was the student that would ask what it took to get a “C” and regrets not asking what it was going to take to receive an “A”.

After graduating from Milby High School in 1999, Fabian set forth to begin his college career at San Jacinto College in Pasadena, TX. It was at San Jacinto College where he had to take a placement test only to fail all three parts of the test leading him to take remedial courses. So his first semester of junior college was about learning how to read and write properly without receiving college credits. This is why he makes it a point in his speech to say that “it’s not where you start, it’s where you end up, that matters”.

Private School Education

After taking courses over a period of three years part-time at the junior college level, he received enough basic course credits to transfer to the University of Houston, Business School. He was accepted but he looked into another school in Dallas, TX which would be the school he chose to attend, DBU.

During his time at DBU, he worked closely with at-risk students from the neighborhoods of Oak Cliff, Dallas.

First Generation College Graduate

In December 2005, he became the first in his entire family to receive a bachelors degree.

He then was accepted into the Graduate school of Business at DBU and studied Organizational Management. In two years he finished his studies and received a Masters degree in Management in May of 2008 and ended up with a 3.85 GPA (that’s all A’s and one B+ by the way). Fabian is also certified in Conflict Resolution with the State of Texas.

In the summer of 2009 Fabian was accepted into the cohort V at DBU where he was going to pursue a PhD in Leadership. After his first semester of studying, it was apparent that he needed to fulfill his true passion, owning a business and speaking to young people to live out their dreams. His research on emotional intelligence sets him apart from all other prevention speakers.
