As an event organizer, I found Robin extremely flexible and down-to-earth to work with as our closing keynote speaker, who left our participants engaged, entertained, and inspired.
Robin Esrock was the Master of Ceremonies at our annual black-tie dinner event at the Waldorf-Astoria. He performed for a sophisticated lay audience with aplomb on the podium, juggling numerous award introductions, keynote introductions, even wild animals. He brought a fun, professional sheen to the evening, and I would highly recommend him for future events.
