“Maritess was an absolute hit on our campus! The students and staff loved our love tarot card reading event we held virtually for our Valentine’s Day celebration. She was so engaging and fun and the students really enjoyed her. Providing virtual programming has been a bit of a struggle, but for this event we had a full (virtual) house and we are already being asked when we can do it again. I would highly recommend Maritess for either a virtual or in person event!”
— Shelby Coxon, Coordinator, Campus Life and Leadership - Metropolitan Community College
“We had Maritess for a virtual tarot card reading program and she was excellent. She took the time to talk with each of the students and make a connection with them. She was extremely flexible with us and would definitely be a program that we would be looking to do again.”
— Marc Cianciola , Assistant Director Student Activities - SUNY Morrisville
“During spring 2020, that now infamous semester for all, we booked Maritess to do a virtual program for us! After staring at a screen for hours on end, this was an event that I could simply let “run on its own!” It was simple to create the form for students to RSVP and then we provided the list with times for readings. Simple. Smooth. And most importantly, well received! Our students love tarot card readings and really anything that provides that “WHAT?!” moment for them! I’d recommend Maritess for a live or virtual performance for sure!”
— B.J. Keefer, Director of Student Engagement and Leadership Development - University of Lynchburg
