“Working with Sebastian Clarke has been a fantastic experience. He is not only a true professional, but also incredibly thoughtful, accommodating, and collaborative. Ahead of our event, he went out of his way to conduct a thorough run-through with our event chairmen and several key donors the night before the Ball — a gesture that made everyone feel confident and well-prepared.
Sebastian was involved throughout the planning process, joining multiple meetings to ensure he fully understood the items, our goals and expectations. His dedication and clarity onstage made a real impact.
This year, we raised over $2 million through the Auction portion of the evening alone — contributing to a total event revenue of $4.4 million. We received excellent feedback from guests who appreciated his clear, concise delivery and engaging presence.”
