Your event is a reflection of your brand. For an organizer, hiring the right emcee can transform a good event, into an engaging, impactful and memorable experience.

I’ve had the honour of bringing life, connection and laughter to help hundreds of events stand out for clients including: Team Canada-Olympics, BC Tech Assn., BCIT, BMW, Prospera Credit Union, the RCMP Musical Ride, and the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Canada. 

✔️ Corporate events
✔️ Galas
✔️ Award shows
✔️ Conferences
✔️ Large-scale community events

Offering a desirable combination of emcee and entertainment, I specialize in creating an atmosphere that’s full of energy, joy and laughter through fun and interactive stage content that’s always customized to your event.

With two decades of experience in the industry, I’ve honed the craft of bringing people together and understanding audiences to help guests connect with event programming - and each other.

Let me share my skills, creativity and audience expertise to help make your next important event shine!

When people get together, it's a special thing.
That shared experience should be unique, meaningful, and leave a lasting impression.

“Kevin’s attention to detail, creativity and professionalism made him a gem to deal with. His ability to connect with the crowd, command their attention and engage them to deliver an elevated experience was impressive. Even with our high expectations he knocked it out of the park and we look forward to working with him again next year!”
— Jill Tipping CEO, BC Tech Association

What Makes Me Different?

20 Years of Experience

I understand what it takes to connect with an audience, make them feel valued and make an event unforgettable.

I’ve had the honour of entertaining tens of thousands of guests with hundreds of events under my belt; I know how to bring your crowd to life and keep their energy up throughout, ensuring audiences are engaged and laughing from start to finish.

And if things don't go as planned, no worries! I’m a skilled improviser who can keep things entertaining no matter what surprises pop up, keeping your event running smoothly.

I can help transform an ordinary event into an extraordinary one, by creating an experience that’s impactful, authentic and filled with joy.

I Become a Partner in Your Event

I’m not your average emcee who will show up on event night and read off a script. I’m truly invested in the success of your event so I'll work closely with you and your team to understand your vision and help make it a reality - from the planning process to event night.

When you work with me, you gain a collaborative partner who’s there for you to offer creative ideas and consultation on perfecting your run-of-show, with an experienced eye to audience energy and engagement from start to finish to deliver the best possible experience.

I love brainstorming original content ideas with clients and watching their eyes light up when they see the potential to elevate the impression they make on their guests.

Fresh, Fun and Creative Content

It’s my job to make sure your event stands out.

With my background as an award-winning nationally-syndicated morning radio host, my specialty lies in thinking outside the box to create target-demo content and unforgettable moments.

I’ve become known for generating creative and entertaining ideas that attendees don’t see at other events, creating a special “must-attend” relationship with your audience.

I offer everything from interactive stage games tailored to your event, to memorable speaker intros and even applying my skills as a professional voice actor to create live movie trailers…starring members of your audience!

VIRTUAL EVENT AND ON-CAMERA HOSTING

Yup. I do that too! If you’re planning an online or hybrid event, your audience is in good hands with me. With a 20-year award-winning broadcast career hosting for national brands like Breakfast Television and City TV, I’ve spent a lot of time becoming fluent in both on-stage and on-camera skillsets.

Want to elevate your next virtual event? I take the same fun and creative approach as I do with in-person events to make sure virtual attendees are engaged, connected to your content and entertained throughout.

Outside the events realm, if your company is looking for a trusted, recognizable personality to be the host of your branded videos, I’d love to work with you!

Whether it’s scripted or unscripted, I can help you create something engaging and memorable that enhances your brand’s presence.
