If you choose to recreate a fabulous State Dinner you might want to showcase a presidential impersonator just for the occasion – who wouldn’t want to join in the fun? Roland will play MC for the evening, delighting your guests with delightful stories and wise lessons from his years at the White House. As a bonus, your organization could maximize its reward by selling books, Roland’s presidential chocolates or a set of Roland’s personalized presidential plates with a unique message printed on the back. Roland has experience as a live auctioneer for charitable events and can create for you the perfect gift-giving environment.

Roland has worked with many private organizations and charities including Best Buddies, Virginia; Elon University and others.
