We found you to be warm, knowledgeable, funny and were most impressed with the level of research you did for each of the presenters and sessions as well as the depth of expertise you were able to impart. We felt that your approach, energy and investment in the Summit was that of partner and not someone employed. We were so grateful we chose you as an MC, your involvement and participation was integral to the success and wonderful feedback we received regarding the Summit.
