Bio
Mica Allan
Eirny was a student of mine on the public speaking and presentation course I teach called "Speaking Up." Over the 6 week course, Eirny soaked up all the language and performance techniques that help a presenter speak with impact, connect with an audience and craft a compelling story. She threw herself into the course and her presentations were extremely well structured and contained a great balance of information, persuasion and humour. Eirny developed week by week and her final presentation was particularly outstanding. She is an extremely competent and engaging public speaker!
