Testimonial
When asked to invite a guest speaker for a college service, Yannik was my first choice. Regardless of age group or atmosphere, Yannik is able to adapt his speaking and teaching styles and diction to make his life lessons suitable for any audience. Not only was he able to entertain my colleagues, he was able to encourage them to overcome daily obstacles such as peer pressure, balancing academic and social life, etc. We were so impressed with him that he was personally invited back by Vice President of Student Affairs. We will definitely be using his services again…

He open a number of eyes, hearts and minds during his presentation. His personal story is inspiring and was able to help our audience understand the part they play in creating a diverse and inclusive environment. We will definitely be using his services again…
