Testimonial
“Steve is as humble and generous as anyone I have worked with. His on-stage professionalism and ability to connect with the audience through his charisma speaks for itself; top shelf, everyone can see this. What people don't see is how easy Steve has made it on the organizers with his preparation and honest care for charitable causes. I know our organization has raised more funds because of Steve's involvement.
“Regardless of our audience demographic or size, Steve Murphy is a pleasure and an asset on any team.”
