Jon Dorenbos, a former player in the National Football League, a contestant on “America’s Got Talent,” and author, will be the keynote speaker at the 2025 IAAO Annual Conference in Orlando, speaking on Monday, Sept. 22. The Keynote is sponsored by Tyler Technologies.
Mr. Dorenbos played 14 seasons in the NFL, making the Pro Bowl twice before retiring after he was diagnosed with a heart condition, requiring 15 hours of emergency open-heart surgery.
He competed on Season 11 of “America’s Got Talent” where he showcased his skills as a sleight-of-hand magician, making it to the finals and placing third overall amongst over 100,000 competitors. He then put his talent on display as a guest on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” who quickly became one of his biggest fans and advocates.
Known for his great sense of humor and positive outlook on life, Dorenbos uses his skills as a magician and his incredible life story to inspire audiences around the world. His book, “Life Is Magic,” draws a roadmap for how to shut that self-doubting voice up by choosing to find happiness in every situation.
