Meet The Digital Trainers


The sessions were invaluable and well received by attendees. I learned from it as well which has enabled me to help others. Our coach, Joshua, took his time to answer questions and help people individually, as well as the whole group. He was great to work with and came to Boyertown twice offering different session each time.”
