I have had the absolute joy of booking Amy to MC several of my events over the past 8+ years. Amy has a way of bringing out the best in people, whether that’s on stage in front of thousands, in front of the camera, or in one-on-one workshops. She is flexible, handles pressure and curveballs like an absolute champion, and goes to above and beyond for her clients and audience – nothing is too hard. Amy has the ability of being a total professional, while cracking jokes that make the whole room laugh. I would book Amy again in a heartbeat.
