Gavin Bell is a speaker and storyteller who creatively incorporates the art of both narrative and humor into his speaking endeavors. Professionally, he has worked in Higher Education as a student affairs practitioner for close to 6 years in a variety of different capacities. Ultimately, he strives to center relational student mentorship at the core of all his roles and aspires to create spaces where students have the ability to authentically achieve their goals and dreams.

His speaking revolves around promoting student well-being while utilizing creative and cultural frameworks in order to both categorize and specifically define what well-being can look like for the busy college student. Much of his framework has roots in Indigenous ways of thinking, as a way to honor his heritage of being a member of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina.

Gavin brings a charisma and humor to the stage, while simultaneously incorporating aspects from his culture, which center on passion and reverence for relationship and healing. He brings a multitude of dynamic speaking experiences including, (but not limited to), college student workshops, symposium keynotes, and national conference presentations.
