Helen Chang is a bestselling author, speaker and entrepreneur. As the founder and CEO of Author Bridge Media, she has assisted more than 400 authors to write, brand and publish their books for credibility, revenue and raving fans. As a speaker, Helen has spoken on stages of up to 350 audience members. Organizers praise her as a compelling and inspiring speaker, who delivers powerful content. Her topics include: "Credibility with a Book" and "The Why of Story." Her mission is that "everyone in the world knows the value of their message in a book." Helen's author clients include Michael Gerber of The E-Myth books, Dani Johnson of ABC's Secret Millionaire, and Scott McGillivray of HGTV's Income Property. Her authors have landed interviews with top media, including CNN, CNBC, Fox, Forbes, The View, and Tim Ferris Podcast. With just one book, a client author launched a $100 million empire. In particular, Helen loves working with people who have experienced failure, despair and struggle, yet rose to gain success, triumph and wisdom. She is passionate about authors with innovative thinking, unique methods and visionary ideas to change the world, as well as those with quiet, heartfelt messages that could save just one person's life. Helen believes in the power of stories to transform people, whether through books, audio, or other viral media. She finds grace in helping people tell their stories, so that they can inspire others, make a difference, and ultimately, fulfill their own life purpose. Books saved Helen's life, as she grew up in a scholarly, yet emotionally abusive home. Reading stories helped her discover other worlds of adversity and inspiration and to connect to something greater than herself. She began writing poems at age five, published her first book at age eight, and grew up to become an award-winning journalist for publications including BusinessWeek, San Francisco Chronicle and MSNBC.com. Soon, entrepreneurs started asking her to ghostwrite their training courses, books, and talks which later expanded into publishing services. Author Bridge Media now takes authors from idea to published book in six months. Helen's first business book was a roller coaster ride. Finishing her first draft, she sent it in, proud of how she had shared the author's journey from shame-filled bankruptcy to satisfying multi-millionaire success. Yet, she was told that the book was "not marketable," since it did not share the author's actual methods that readers could grow from. Crawling into bed with her own shame, she chose to not give up and instead study best-selling business books and rewrite her client's manuscript. The book became a bestseller and the cornerstone of the author's international business. Born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii, Helen is now based in San Diego, California. She participates with a Hawaiian-music group and enjoys dancing hula.

Entrepreneur Max Murphy has been called “an entrepreneurial powerhouse” by some of businesses top leaders. He is a highly sought after speaker, author, and business coach. Max is currently the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Policampus, a revolutionary political engagement startup that has successfully received venture capital funding, making him on of the youngest people in the country to do so. Max has received an advanced diploma in Entrepreneurship and Strategy from ALISON and is currently pursuing a degree in Entrepreneurship at a college in Boston. His book, Making Ideas Work is currently completing its first printing run and is filled with anecdotes, strategies, and ideas to help anybody fulfill their entrepreneurial dreams. One of the most prolific young serial entrepreneurs working today, Max started his journey at just eight years old with a comic book store he operated out of his grandparents garage. When Max got tired of selling to the same two customers every week (his grandparents), he decided to expand his reach. Max launched a website and google profile, and not soon after he found people knocking on his grandparents door from all across New England looking for “Max’s Comic Shop”. After his parents forced him underground because they didn’t want strangers showing up at their house, Max started selling online. Later at age 13 Max launched the website hosting service dotMySite.com, a free service that generated revenue from banner advertisements. The software and website that powered the service were built entirely by Max himself under the name MaxWare. At age 15 Max launched another venture called WinItGlobal, an online penny auction website that was acquired by a major player in the industry in under a year. Flash forward to age 17 — after taking a trip to Salem, Massachusetts Max noticed a massive generational gap in the tour industry and formed Haunted Avenue Ghost Tours, a ghost tour company aimed at younger audiences that grew rapidly and quickly became a reputable name in the industry. Max has publications featured on Medium and his blog, “Uncommon Sense”. He has been profiled by numerous local outlets and has taught entrepreneurship courses to middle and high school students from all over New England.
