“Daisy’s workshop at the ECIS Leadership Conference was incredibly unique and outstanding compared to most DEI leadership trainings I’ve attended.....Daisy helped us look inward to understand how we feel, and how our own experiences shape what we project. That shift allows us to build deeper empathy and connection with others...”
Sarah Kupke, Head of Schools Relationships and Partnerships at ECIS
“In Daisy’s communication workshop, what really stood out’s her stories from work situations where participants can really identify themselves. The scenario-based exercises and simulations connect well with her book frameworks to enable ongoing learning and integration. Loved seeing our 50+ attendees actively engage in the activities. There’s really a strong practical aspect of her facilitation that made the learnings and transformation last beyond the session.”

“As the MC for City of Greater Shepparton's Lunar New Year Celebration which hosted over 1,000 community memebrs, Daisy brought warmth, professionalism and confidence to the event, helping create a welcoming and engaging atmosphere for our diverse community.
She was well prepared, adaptable and able to connect naturally with people from different cultural backgrounds. Her calm presence and clear communication ensured the program ran smoothly, while her enthusiasm added energy to the celebration.
I truly appreciated Daisy's contribution to such an important community event. She is reliable, passionate about supporting local communities, and a pleasure to collaborate with. I would highly recommend Daisy to anyone looking for a professional and engaging MC or event host.
