TESTIMONIALS
“Thanks again for a fantastic corporate Christmas event! Everyone I spoke to really enjoyed themselves and I’ve had some raving feedback about your performance and quizzes!
It was brilliant!”

“‘Your role as Master of Muppet Ceremonies made our time in Wellington such a pleasure. We couldn’t have felt more welcome and Jim Henson more celebrated in your lovely city.”
“The NZ Respiratory Conference has been taking place annually for many years. Our aim in 2015 was to make it different from all the other health conferences. Having Chris on board was certainly the best decision we made. He brought a “breath of fresh air” to the event, his professionalism and passion shone through and was commented on by several of the delegates, with one of our presenters being heard to say, “I have been to many health conferences and he is the best MC I have heard.””

“Chris has an electric energy that fills the room and captivates the audience (young and old). He was a fabulous addition to our event and kept the energy up and everyone engaged through all the transitions. We would absolutely love to use Chris again for this event and others as the way he interacts and engages the audience is simply quite fabulous!”
