We have used Chad for so many things! He has emceed our events and helped them go smoothly with great, funny transitions. We've used his stand-up comedy skills as a way to communicate information to a crowd in a fun way. He has helped us write hilarious, personalized content for our church services!

I made an error in the date in booking Chad for project graduation...he COMPLETELY shuffled his schedule to accommodate us and was so gracious with me. He was easy to coordinate with, and on time to the event. Loved it!

March 18, 2018Incredible EMCEE for our first employee awards event
In 2018, we hired Chad to EMCEE The Associes, our first annual technology awards event. We wanted this event to be powerful and memorable for every attendee, so Chad was the obvious choice after two years of engaging our employees. In this event, Chad used humor and improv techniques again to keep the audience engaged and with high energy during a 1.5 hour presentation.

March 18, 2018Chad helped create the most engaging training event ever
As an IT director at Associated Electric Cooperative, I hired Chad on two separate engagements. The first engagement used Chad's improv techniques to engage my employees during a boring and dreaded compliance training event. The first event was incredibly successful and people still talk about these experiences. Employees gave the training group a standing applause after the event and we reduced our compliance events for years afterwards because people paid attention and engaged.
