Testimonials

I just wanted to thank you for your amazing lecture at the CRF event today. I found a lot of what you said inspiring and thought-provoking and I especially agree on the GOT disaster on the final episode! It is rare that an event like this is as engaging and mind-bending as yours was. Thanks ever so much.
