Emily was a great addition to our company party. She even got me some extra points with the boss by playing 3 of his favorite songs. Thank you Emily!
Response from Emily Zimmer:
Thanks for the review, Mike! It was a pleasure working with you and your company.
Em is so great! I highly recommend her. Not only did she put on a great performance, but she played a handful of songs we requested, including my husband & my first dance song from our wedding. She made our night extra special. Thanks Em!
