    Anna Archer - Live Experience Lead, Spark NZ

  • Wilhelmina was an absolute standout as the MC for the FQ Awards. While I provided her with vague notes, she elevated them effortlessly—adding warmth, charisma, and the perfect touch of personality. She had the audience captivated, knowing exactly when to bring the energy up with laughter and when to command silence for those more important moments. Her ability to control the crowd was seamless, and her pronunciation—especially of te reo Māori and more complex names—was flawless. We couldn’t have asked for a better host!
