If you've ever attended a multi-day business conference, then you know it can sometimes be exhausting. 

Yes, you're excited to learn and network, but sitting through hours of presentations can also take a mental and physical toll. 

As the leading business and finance journalist in the Caribbean, I get invited to host a lot of events and conferences. Organizers book me because of my extensive subject area knowledge and ability to bridge gaps for the audience. 

However, I take the most joy in making these events enjoyable and memorable. Event hosting is not just about keeping time and introducing the next speaker. It's about keeping the audience engaged and excited, leaving with a longing to come back next year.
