Speaking Engagements

When we speak freely, express ourselves fully and uplift one another, the whole world benefits. As a movement and voice expert, the art of presence has inspired my performance and teaching approach for nearly 30 years.

After dancing professionally in NYC in the 1980’s and 90’s, my growing family and I moved to Santa Fe New Mexico; where I taught Stage Presence and Physical Theater at the Santa Fe University of Art & Design. I have offered countless presentations at conferences and retreats centers throughout the US and Europe and at last! I bring my Embodied Stage Presence coaching magic to Chicagoland and beyond.

Imagine how fabulous it would feel to turn nervous anxiety and stage fright into usable high octane performance energy.

In my Keynote address – Get ready to inspire any stressful situation into a playfully creative opportunity.

In my half day and full day seminars – Learn, practice and explore the tools that transform stage fright into stage presence, everytime. Speak truthfully. Move boldly. Love completely.
