Testimonials
"I’d be very happy to recommend Polly to anyone that is looking for a host or media spokesperson. She was truly a pleasure to work with – very down to earth, practical and professional. She was able to quickly adapt to our changing needs, and pulled off a few tough name pronunciations ... in Italian too! I’d happily work with her again."
Sara Hassett, Baker Hughes Annual Meeting 2021 Programme Manager
