About Selena
True Grit:
From Deaf to Determined
College/Pro Athlete
Selena Wilkes graduated from Williamsport, Maryland, leading the school to state titles in volleyball and basketball.
Continuing her athletic career at Catawba College in North Carolina, she was named Division II All-America in volleyball. She then played professional golf for six years on the LPGA Futures Tour. She is still active in sports and an avid bicyclist.
Entrepreneur
After Selena obtained her Master’s degree and returned home, she launched a very diversified and successful career as an entrepreneur.
Selena and her sister Lettie operate Elmwood Farm Bed and Breakfast in Williamsport, MD., which also hosts holiday parties, weddings, executive retreats, and other events—large and small. Selena also runs Mattress by Appointment of Western Maryland and a location in New York, in addition to several other business ventures.
Motivational Speaker
Selena Wilkes never really looked at herself as a motivational speaker until she kept getting asked to present keynotes at local and regional events. What has transpired since has been one of the most wonderful surprises in her life.
Selena is now dedicated to delivering powerful keynotes to a wide-array of audiences all over the country. Selena also mentors and conducts workshops and training to smaller groups—ranging from CEO’s to middle school and high school athletes.
Community Leader
Selena Wilkes continues to be an inspiration to athletes, business owners, employees, volunteers, philanthropists, influencers, and change makers. She has been recognized for her accomplishments in both her personal and professional life, and her drive for excellence and passion to make a positive impact in this world is what drives every decision she makes. Her greatest reward, however, is the strong interpersonal relationships she builds along the way.
