ABOUT JEFF

A lifelong love of connecting with people.

I’m Jeff Boniface, a U.S. Navy veteran with a background in public speaking, musical theater and hospitality management. Connecting with people has been a constant throughout my life.

My love of the stage began with musical theater as a child. During my Navy service, I served as a tour guide aboard USS Constitution, sharing the history of “Old Ironsides” with visitors. My experience in Boston hospitality management also taught me how to read a room, make people feel welcome and stay composed when plans change.

I bring those experiences to my work as an emcee: careful preparation, a natural speaking style and a genuine interest in the people in front of me. My goal is to help you feel confident in your program and your guests feel part of the occasion.
