Testimonials for A La Mode


“I had the pleasure of working with A La Mode for the past year while putting together youth workshops and a family-friendly drag show. If you are looking for a drag performer for any event, I highly recommend A La Mode. Not only is she highly professional, but she is also an absolute delight to work with! She can connect with audiences and participants of all ages, whether it be youth or adults. A La Mode always puts 100% into everything she does, which is evident through her engaging personality and excellent performances!”

--Maura Tomassetti, current MSW Candidate at the University of Washington 

(Former Youth Advocate at the Sacramento LGBT Community Center)


“The Crocker Art Museum was thrilled to have the chance to work with A La Mode, and she really delivered. We were experimenting with a concept that didn’t have great models, so we really needed someone who could be a thought-partner and could think strategically and thoughtfully about the audience and ways to engage in fun and playful ways.  Ms. A La Mode was the entire package. In planning the engagement/performance, Ms. Mode was extremely responsive and always professional. Her appearance with us was engaging, playful, and lots of fun for all involved. She is really great at improvising and thinking on her feet, and simply a joy to work with.”  

--Stacey Shelnut-Hendrick, Former Director of Education at the Crocker Art Museum


“A La Mode has a magnetic personality and is a consummate professional!

On time, dressed to the nines, smiling, engaging – she made it so easy to work with her – including giving us some fun suggestions for ways to further enhance our customers’ engagement during the time we had available with her.  Bonus, she responds quickly, and has a great network of talent – it will be our honor to work with her again!”

--Heidi Minx, Former Chief Marketing Officer at The Sanctuary
