"We had Craig come to campus for a sex education session in collaboration with our African Student Association. During the session, Craig was personable, engaging, and incredibly authentic. The session was going so well that students in attendance reached out to their peers to drop by the auditorium, and we ultimately had a full auditorium. Craig is incredible, and I definitely recommend him for your programming needs."

-Junior Pena, Fitchburg State University

"I have continued to bring Craig to each campus I've worked on because of his unique ability to truly engage with students he's working with. Craig has the ability to adapt his presentations to meet the needs of a particular program, group, or event. Every time I bring Craig to campus the event has value to the students in attendance."

- Mike Fox, Bristol Community College
