Introduction: I am a professionally trained actor and speaker with a B.A. in Theatre from Temple University and a graduate of improvisation from The Second City and iO (improvOlympic.) I have been competitively speaking through prose, poetry and stand up comedy since the age of 11. As an entertainer, I have performed my funny bits all over the country and in Europe. I enjoy helping people realize their full potential. Public speaking is the #1 fear people have. I love giving my clients a couple tricks and practices to help them overcome their fears and become their most confident self at work an in their personal lives. Whether it's a best man speech or a presentation at work, we can all excel. As an entertainer, I invite my audience into the hilarity of my own life and I feel it helps them realize they are not alone in the world, e.g. You have a crazy sister, too???

Elizabeth is an intelligent, approachable, talented, but most importantly, very funny person. She has coached myself and another executive in public speaking which tremendously increased my confidence speaking to groups and on camera. She meets you where you are in terms of needs. As a comedian/improv/actress/singer/dancer/writer she has exposure to most arts so I also just found our discussions thoughtful and enjoyable. I highly recommend Elizabeth if you need personal speech coaching, an entertainer for a party, or an MC for your next event. Outside of playing instruments, I'm not really sure what she can't do.
