The secret weapon
is a woman
who can storytell.

Trained charity auctioneer · Emcee · Mission storyteller

01 / One booking, three jobs

Emcee. Auctioneer. Storyteller.

Most events hire three people for this. Molly carries the whole night — so the energy never resets and your mission never leaves center stage.

The Emcee

The night, in professional hands.

Run-of-show, honoree moments, award segments, the unexpected — Molly owns the podium so your team can work the room. Twenty-seven years of live television means the program stays warm, sharp, and exactly on time.

The Auctioneer

Trained. Live. In it for your total.

As a trained charity auctioneer, Molly runs live auctions and paddle raises with momentum, humor, and heart — she knows when to push a bid, when to let a moment breathe, and how to make generosity feel like the best seat in the house.

The Storyteller

Your mission, made unforgettable.

More than 15,000 interviews taught Molly how to draw out the story that makes a room lean in. Mission moments, honoree conversations, testimonial segments — she makes the why of your night impossible to ignore.

02 / A Better Benefit

Live TV is just a nightly fundraiser for attention.

Reading a room in real time, keeping a program on the clock, making strangers comfortable enough to open up... Molly did it on air every night for two decades. Your event is a similar job.

03 / How it works

Your night, handled.

  1. 01

    Mission immersion

    Before the night, Molly gets inside your cause — calls with your team, your materials, your honorees' stories — so she speaks about your mission like she's part of it.

  2. 02

    Run-of-show partnership

    Script, auction lineup, paddle-raise levels, timing — Molly collaborates with your event team and takes feedback like the newsroom pro she is.

  3. 03

    The night itself

    Energy at the top, warmth in the mission moment, momentum at the auction — and live-TV instincts for everything that doesn't go to plan.

  4. 04

    The follow-through

    A debrief on what moved the room, so next year's event starts ahead of this one.
