She empowers her individual and corporate clients to be truly comfortable with themselves and their unique voice. 


Laurie became a senior lecturer at the University of Southern California, School of Cinematic Arts, in 1985 where she taught acting and directing for film in both graduate and undergraduate programs.

Through her processes, Laurie’s trainings ignite the fire in the way we speak, present, and communicate, for memorable impact.
