  • I've had the pleasure of working with Monica on both virtual and in person events over the last year, and not only has been well received, she is one of the highlights! She is so professional and easy to work with, and spends time customizing her material to reflect the audience. She is full of energy, engaging and entertaining.

  • Monica Parkin hit it out of the park with the "Networking for Introverted Accountants" webinar she did for our community of accountants! Her presentation was a perfect fit to address the unique challenges introverted accountants face. Her presentation style is fun and engaging. As an introvert herself, it is clear that Monica has succeeded in "overcoming awkward" by challenging herself, and she does a great job of challenging others to do the same. Bravo, Monica!
