Comedian. Impressionist. Strategist. Storyteller.

Four decades on stage, behind the mic, and in the boardroom

JS Gilbert has spent a career doing the thing most people never manage once: making a room full of strangers laugh, think, and change their mind — sometimes in the same sentence. He's a comedian and impressionist who brings characters to life, the voice behind iconic characters across games, animation, commercials and interactive entertainment, and a business strategist who gives audiences takeaways that actually matter.

Business strategist & consultant

Beyond the stage, JS is a founder and co-owner of multiple businesses, an advertising writer, producer and creative director, and a working business consultant. He spent 12 years contracted with Thomson Reuters developing online training and compliance programs — real-world experience that shapes every keynote he delivers.

Author of The Different Me

JS is the author of The Different Me: Traumatic Intelligence that Builds Strength, exploring how adversity can produce unexpected strengths. He's also published hundreds of business articles — connecting, teaching, and changing minds well beyond the ballroom. See more of JS's work at realjsgilbert.com.
