Testimonials

Working with Christine was a sublime experience. Her resume speaks for itself, but what it can’t tell you is that she is open, amicable, and enthusiastic about the content she is presenting, while being willing to tailor the content toward the group she’s presenting to. I will reach out to her with any opportunity I can for a presentation, and I highly recommend working with her.

Nice to be in the loop. The added statistics and age-related behaviors were great. Up beat and fun!…Presenter was passionate about her topic and a great presenter… This lecture really helped me make sense/understand why broad food and advertising markets and multiple trends are focused on the Millennials and Gen Zs…. Such a warm speaker! The time flew by! Nice slides…Very engaging with the audience. Presenter was lively and knew her topic very well…. Very interesting and engaging topic and excellent speaker.
