Testimonial
“Kirsty was our virtual assistant for our conference and I could not recommend her more. She was incredibly professional and warm, no question was too stupid (and there were a lot of questions!). She was incredible and helped so much – we literally could not in any way have put on the conference without her.
She met with us weekly, responded to emails from attendees and speakers, sent emails to presenters, gave advice on the conference platform we used, set up the entire conference platform, collated all the presentations and sent them to the session chairs – as well as a host of other things.
Everything was completed on or often before schedule to an incredibly high standard. Kirsty would be the first person I would recommend.”

Testimonial
"Kirsty provided the full implementation of the abstract submission and registration system for the World Climate Research Programme's Open Science Conference.
Given the complexity of the event, Kirsty's professionalism was fundamental for those systems to be in place on time and running smoothly. Her experience in the organisation of other large events was key, and her calm and friendly approach made the whole process very manageable.
Always available and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Kirsty to provide support to any event.”
Dr Nico Caltabiano, World Meteorological Organization
