Testimonials

The session with Ayo was fantastic. I have to say she was phenomenal, really inspiring, we had great feedback!
Rachel Collins, Colt Technology Services

Ayo was fantastic and the session went down really well. Please extend my thanks to her for such a well presented and well-rounded session, not only touching on race but also neurodiversity a topic we have also presented on earlier in the year.
Monty Onanuga, Senior Risk Manager at ClearBank

I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for your invaluable contribution to our very first virtual IEMA members’ conference for environment and sustainability professionals. We were all so deeply inspired and empowered by what you shared with us, particularly in the area of tackling the sustainability challenge as professionals and for your ongoing commitment to a more sustainable future. We have already received so much positive feedback from our members around how beneficial and motivational they found the day and how brilliant our speakers were. This event would not have been possible without you.
Sarah Mukherjee MBE – IEMA

Ayo was an excellent speaker for DVERSTY’s Intentional Engineering series, we were humbled to have her. She represented her experiences as a Chartered Civil Engineer and Councillor extremely well. Delivering her presentation so eloquently, Ayo gave our guests an insight into the DNA of Civil Engineering. We’d like to thank Ayo for encouraging everybody to use their ‘voice’ to challenge injustices seen in their environment.
Joanna Tomlin -Co-Founder & Development Director- DVERSTY

Very interesting – such a positive force of nature…People often say that change happens because people ‘stand on the shoulders of giants’. Today, I think we’ve all just met a giant!

Langtree School

Thank you so much for coming in to speak to my year group. I have had so much positive feedback from students and teachers alike. You are so inspiring and a fantastic role model.
Highdown School

I thought that Ayo was a really inspiring speaker. I thought her advice about thinking about the “why” of your career path is important. It made me consider if my current ideas for the future are truly what will make me happy, or are just what I think I need to do to be successful. I also loved that she encouraged us to be the change we want to see in the world! That is always a powerful message, and I can’t wait to try to make a difference, whatever I do in the future.
STEM event attendee

Ayo delivered an incredible and thought-provoking keynote speech and led the discussion wonderfully. She has an impressive background which was truly inspiring and she was the perfect keynote speaker and host for our event.
