About the Founder
I spent most of my twenties working and studying in Los Angeles. When I wasn’t a comedy sensation on a major network sitcom by 27, it was time to move on, but I didn’t walk away empty-handed.
I knew that my knowledge in improvisation was something that could make a real impact with non-actors. With the improv experience and my leadership coaching certification in hand, I now pull from both worlds to make improv accessible to non-actors.
It can be intimidating to learn by doing improvisation. Through thoughtful program design and a knowledge of differing learning and communication styles, I create a space where introverts and extroverts alike can interact and learn, taking away concrete tools that can be applied directly to the workplace.

Why Improv?
To help tackle your toughest interpersonal communication and teamwork challenges. What will make it work? Improv. Using improvisation as a platform for interactive learning, we set a foundational agreement to:
Say, “Yes, and” – this phrase forces us to actively listen and fully accept the ideas of others.
Make each other look good – when we intentionally look for ways to let others use their skills and talents, we set each other up for success, and we all look amazing.
Improv is not about being “funny,” the goals are to listen, be present , and to create together. However, because of these rules we do end up laughing a lot! Research shows us that laughing together builds trust, helps us to deal with stress, and allows for more creative thinking. It has the ability to strengthen bonds and sync teams. Who couldn’t use more of that?!
The Impact of Successful Communication
Using these techniques in training, speaking, and coaching I’ve seen cultures completely change from having meetings where nobody is listening, everyone is arguing but saying the same thing and nothing is getting done, to having meetings where people are having collaborative conversations and working toward a common goal, valuing what each person brings to the table.
