August 31, 2023Brilliant, Engaging & Entertaining Professional
Adam brought the WOW factor (as our Emcee) to our Business Conference as our which took place up in Whistler BC in June 2023. He had the conference pace moving smoothly, engaging and entertaining throughout the three days and evenings. He was amazing with impromptu games before the dinner which was running late and got our guests hangry minds off how late dinner was. He captivated everyone with his professionalism and charisma. He is such a pleasure to work with, easy going, creative and highly recommend him in all your events, no matter the size, location, industry. I knew our event was in good hands with him emceeing. He will definitely WOW your guests and you! We here at the association extremely happy we found him! We can't picture another signature event without him! I would rate him with 10 stars out of 5 stars !

August 29, 2022He will leave you buzzing for days!
Adam has been a guest speaker twice now for our charity's workshops. He has a vibrant energy that is contagious and will leave you buzzing for days, if not weeks after you hear him speak. Adam's straightforward and charismatic personality rings through with stories of his life. He is captivating as he describes how everyone can be loving and live their best lives with his tried and true practices. He drew out the shyest individual in our group and gave space to their experience. In addition, he provides personal and evidence-based research to complement the discussion. Adam was an excellent motivational speaker, and we cannot wait to have him join our workshops again. You won't be sorry!

January 24, 2021Virtual Event Host Master!!!
We hired Adam to MC our 2 day global company event for over 400 employees, what we ended up getting was SO MUCH MORE!! Adam was quick on his feet, bringing humor, fun, energy, class, and freshness to our event. From planning to virtual "onsite", Adam was easy to collaborate with and really understood our vision. His presence amplified our event. I would absolutely work with Adam again whether it be virtually or onsite.

August 28, 2022Couldn't have asked for a better emcee!
Adam did an incredible job emcee'ing my wedding and staying on top of the schedule I'd shared with him. He was nothing but kind and professional, and I really appreciated the positive energy he brought to the entire night. Everyone enjoyed the humor he subtly incorporated into almost every announcement (as appropriate) and how seamlessly he transitioned from one wedding activity to another with such genuine enthusiasm. It was clear that he truly cared about contributing to our special night and ensuring it was as fun and and memorable as possible. I highly recommend Adam; he really loves what he does, and it shows!

What to expect
Before your event ever starts, Adam will go through the run of show/timeline/event needs with you and/or your planner(s) to ensure that everyone is on the same page. Once he arrives onsite, he's laser-focused on ensuring that the event goes smoothly. He's always ready to fill time when needed, or keep things moving if things go longer than expected. His only goal is to ensure that he's the easiest part of your event!
From concept to completion, his only focus is ensuring that your event is a complete success! Since he has handled all aspects of event production across 1000's of events, he often helps to ensure aspects outside of his hired duties are handled as these aspects often impact his work at the event. He always goes above and beyond, and all of his repeat clients can attest to this.
About
Adam started off entertaining live audiences at the age of 17, as a live-event MC/DJ. In his 20's, he started doing standup comedy and has performed all over the US and Canada. He is now focused on Emceeing, Charity Auctioneering, and speaking/presenting at live events. He has entertained audiences of all ages (4yrs old-95yrs old), and has done just about every kind of event you can imagine - working for numerous celebrities, corporations and private events.
Adam has a unique ability to aggregate attention and take control of a room. He's well-spoken, educated, intelligent and witty, not to mention quick on his feet and funny. He's also very respectful, professional and poised. He really knows how to have a great time, and his personality is contagious. He prides himself on customer service and has a motto: If you're early, you're on time. He's always early, and always responds to client communications within 24 hours.
After graduating with a degree in Marketing, Adam moved to Los Angeles to follow his passion for on-camera hosting and stand-up comedy. He achieved a lot of success in his endeavours with highlights including hosting and producing over 150 segments across 50 episodes of This Is LA on CBS, performing standup comedy on numerous stages in LA, the US and Canada, and working in several commercials while also hosting live events across the US. Adam has also DJ’d for numerous A-list celebrities, and his events have varied from 50 people to well over 5000 people. Adam has DJ’d multiple times at Diner En Blanc in LA, Pride in Montreal, numerous events at Warner Bros, and other studios, and also had a successful and thriving entertainment company in LA before moving to Vancouver in 2021. After that move, Adam handled all aspects of production for Taste This! and a medical advisory series - both series of branded content videos for PlantX, currently airing on the company's YouTube channel and across social media platforms. While Adam is often consulting with companies, he loves rocking a party and is looking forward to creating memories with you and your crowd!
Adam also offers full fundraising event consulting services where he will consult with your committee to help ensure your fundraiser raises as much as possible. Services start well before the event date, culminating in emceeing and handling the auction, paddle raise, and any and all fundraising games at the event. He has successfully helped raise millions of dollars across the US and Canada.
Additional booking notes
Adam doesn't need much to be successful at what he does, but he does require amplified sound and a microphone (ideally a wireless handheld). If the event requires a substantial amount of dialogue that needs to be delivered verbatim, a confidence monitor or teleprompter is appreciated, but written notes work as well. These elements can always be discussed on a per event basis.
Influences and inspiration
Always cerebral and somewhat of an over-thinker, Adam was heavily influenced by the comedy of Eddie Izzard - in fact it was watching Eddie's standup specials that inspired Adam to get into standup comedy in the first place. Having always had a love for hosting on camera and for live events, Adam has always respected the greats, and has in the past been compared to Ryan Seacrest amongst others. With a background in Yoga and Ayurveda (Adam is also a certified Yoga and Ayurveda teacher), and the desire to constantly deepen his spiritual practice, Adam also loves to teach meditation and mindfulness and has done so for many different events. From inspirational speaking to comedic hosting and more, Adam will uplift, inspire, and entertain your audiences.
