Connecting the dots is what I do best and sharing aha moments is my                    

favourite hobby.

As an expert listener, I accidentally practiced my way into being a naturally engaging panel moderator, interview producer, and workshop host.

When it comes to panel moderation and on-stage interviews, Ayana is a master at keeping the conversation flowing while  engaging the audience and staying on time. Discussing complex  topics on-stage requires a coveted personality that can broker  topic transitions, draw unexpected connections and bring out the best of everyone’s personality.
