Liz is amazing and extremely engaging! Her background as a teacher helps keep the hybrid audience engaged through breakouts and audience engagement. Her ability to leverage in a genuine manner her own experiences clearly helps drive the point home on the topic presented. She is also very down to earth and helps break complex topics down easily.
