Steve Clemons Reviews

  • Steve was fantastic, he spoke with the guests individually before the event, he obviously researched our company and made his speech relevant, and he engaged in a dynamic and extremely enjoyable Q&A session with everyone. My AAE agent was so helpful setting up the contract. The logistics team was great at helping nail down the key details for the event and made themselves available if anything were to go wrong (which did not happen!).
