From scientists to entrepreneurs, executives to activists, doctors to TV chefs to artists - I have worked with a wide variety of individuals and companies who are making waves in their industries.
With my background as an actress and acting professor, I guide my clients to not just feel vibrant and confident but also able to deliver performances that leave a powerful impact. I'm the Founder and CEO of both Boston Public Speaking and San Diego Public Speaking and an author. (I'm bi-coastal!)
