Stacy Taniguchi, Ph. D Reviews

  • Dr. Taniguchi was great, he knew his audience and 99% of them were fine with the presentation but I had a few members of the group who were no longer part of the predominate religion who felt his presentation leaned towards churchy. Those of use who were in on the planning were very pleased with the way the event turned out and appreciated his perspective.
