What Folks Say

Rob- We wanted to thank you so much for performing such a wonderful ceremony- it really could not have been more perfect. Everyone loved it! We would really like to have you and JJ and RJ over for dinner soon. Thanks again, so much! It was Perfect.

- Gina and Steve

True, you are truly a gifted Master of Ceremonies. I can't begin to express my appreciation for your skill at personalizing each and every introduction to the storytellers in the final concert for the annual Southern California Storyswap in May, 2004. Your spontaneity and commentary about each teller's background and story delighted the entire audience. You made the performing storytellers feel comfortable, and supported, like we are all part of a wonderful family. I was amazed by the way in which you tied in everything and also organized and managed the entire final concert. Your timing and performance were impeccable. I cannot recommend you highly enough as both MC and performing artist. You are truly gifted.

You were “Great” as always!

- Bonnie K.

As a videographer and editor he is patient, perceptive and inventive; as a raconteur/historian he is captivating and charismatic; and as an event coordinator and stage manager he is organized, observant and unfaltering.... It was remarkable to witness Rob's finesse and aplomb while working under less than ideal conditions. Technical proficiency and effective people management are vital to succeeding in this business. I have Rob to thank for maintaining the composure of [my] event.
