August 8, 2020Fantastic Performance
We had a corporate team gathering of around 20 people for our Zoom call, and had a set of 3 performers to come and entertain. Ty's performance was by far our team's favorite, and her poetry touched all of us deeply.
She was very responsive and professional, and we look forward to keeping in touch with her in the future and plan to invite her again to perform more. You can trust her to do an excellent job for any event you plan to host.
