It was a pleasure to work with Chris on our recent Fatherhood event for The Tenth in the Aubrey Bar at the Mandarin Oriental. He was a fantastic addition to the panel discussion and shared some insightful personal stories about his own experiences as a dad. He made everyone feel at ease and also struck the perfect balance of humorous yet informative. The audience was captivated. We hope to work with Chris again in the future.
