I hired Lucia to help me define a new brand for my professional life as an author and speaker. She was focused and direct; and didn’t shy from giving me the advice I needed to achieve the goals I had established with her. Excited! Thanks Lucia!

Lucia was hired to upgrade an audio production for my hydrogen tech aerospace client. Lucia coached my client with stage director expertise and took the presentation from boring to bright. We saw immediate stage presence improvement and clarity of content. No question Lucia knows how to develop and prepare for higher efficiency in speaking and presentation!

Lucia is a master speaker and storyteller who provided the most specific actionable feedback I’ve ever received on my comedy. I look forward to working with her again. She delivered content feedback, identified weaknesses and directed a powerful narrative arc overall.
