Furthermore Matt was great to work with during weeks leading up to event – he listens well, he’s engaged, he shows up, he prepares, and he brings tremendous experience so he knows the best tricks of the trade, and questions to ask. I recommend Matt Lorch as an event emcee without hesitation, he’s the best. ”

“I cannot say enough good things about Matt Lorch as an MC for Special Olympics Washington and most importantly a true supporter of our athletes and mission. Matt has brought a high-level of professionalism to both our Opening Ceremonies for Summer Games and our annual Breakfast with Champions (two straight years). Matt spent time investing himself in the events, understanding our goals and developing a deep understanding of the organization. In the end, he is not just an “MC”, but a true advocate for Special Olympics Washington, which goes miles with the athletes and potential donors.”
