"I was not looking forward to this class but it was by far the best class I've been to in years. You are an absolutely wonderful and engaging speaker. I will attend any course that you are leading."

​" Montiqua is a powerful and dynamic speaker. She took us to DEI University!"
Jennifer Campbell of MedPlus Consulting
"She is a pleasure to work with and a great resource that I have proudly recommended to other organizations."
Montiqua was our guest speaker and gave a compelling presentation on embracing cultural diversity in the workplace. She was very engaging with our members and had meaningful dialogue that left a lasting impression with everyone that was in
attendance including my 15 year old daughter. We received positive feedback on our surveys that were filled with comments praising her professionalism and ability to answer questions about what can be a sensitive topic.
