We hired Amani as the emcee and moderator for our hybrid education panel. He did an excellent job of keeping the conversation flowing. Using his savvy interviewing skills, he was able to go beyond the questions we had prepared for him and guided the conversation based on the panelist's responses. His humor and position disposition kept both the in-person and virtual audiences engaged. I highly recommend hiring Amani for your next program. | Deshawn Wynn, CMP-HC, Chief Meeting Architect | Wynning Touch | https://placid-fra.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/production/rest-images/zqiq8n9efryrq/airtable-d4f9d85e62c7a37694f5d4e7b96565ec-onw5ipot.png

Amani Roberts far exceeds the typical definition of a DJ. He is an exceptional keynote speaker and emcee who levels up the experience for every stage fortunate enough to host him. He is a consummate professional and is a dream to work with. | Melissa Majors, Author, Speaker, Consultant | |
Amani has moderated many panels for our MPI chapter. He always brings insightful thought-provoking questions that keep the panel engaged and the audience engaged. He has a tremendous ability to work on the fly and come up with additional questions that may not have been provided to him prior to the discussion taking place. Amani has a knack for getting the crowd involved and engaged in the discussion. We love anytime that Amani is able to moderate or emcee one of our programs. | Amanda White, Corporate Sales Manager | |
