"I first heard Amy Downs speak at my Sunday school class and was so impressed that I immediately booked her for my large luncheon series. She was so dynamic. The tragedy she endured is a riveting story, but it’s how she uses the circumstances to inspire life lessons that has the greatest impact. Amy is a gifted storyteller with superior speaking skills. She works hard to tailor her material for the audience so her content connects with them. I would highly recommend Amy."

Speaking

Amy Downs was one of the last survivors to be pulled from the rubble of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing in which a total of 168 people were killed including 18 of her 33 co-workers. While buried alive and waiting to die, she realized she had never really lived. Once freed from the rubble, Downs promised God she would never live her life the same. She began her career as a teller 32 years ago, working for Federal Employees Credit Union located in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. At the time of the bombing, Downs was a credit card loan officer who flunked out of college and weighed more than 350 pounds.

In the coming years, she’d not only lose weight but become a triathlete—and even compete in an Ironman Triathlon. She’d not only go back to school, but she’d graduate with a Masters of Business Administration. She’d not only get promoted by Federal Employees Credit Union (who would soon change their name to Allegiance Credit Union), but she eventually became its CEO—an award-winning CEO, no less. She didn’t just fulfill her promise. She literally ran laps around it.

For nearly twenty years, Amy has been an inspirational subject in national and local media for her survival of the Alfred P. Murrah Building bombing, the deadliest domestic terror attack in our nation’s history. However, Amy now shares a message more powerful than her survival: her transformation in the aftermath. Her inspirational story of triumphant transformation through evil is a crucial message that will leave the audience feeling inspired and open to growth.
