"Our audience was over the moon with Roxane’s presentation. She set the mood for what turned in to a highly energetic, engaging, enthusiastic and enjoyable event. The rest of the day and into the next day were the best times I've had working for DEED in my entire career here. I actually woke up an hour earlier this morning because I was still feeling all the positive energy from the past two days!"
