I am a strategic director and creative leader. I am a multi-disciplinary theatre artist and poet.
I believe all the world’s a stage — and we can always re-imagine the show.
I like big ideas and people who are curious. I want to know more about you.

Welcome!

Here’s what’s new:

HAPPENING now: 

Liz is currently Chief of Staff at The Idea Village, a non-profit that accelerates venture-scale startups to drive transformative economic development across the Gulf South. Our programs support companies from idea-stage through raising $1M+ in outside capital. We are also major partners in driving the new statewide Louisiana Innovation initiative, which includes driving a strategic industry focus on Climate Tech & Culture Tech, plus attracting national VCs to the region via 3rd Coast Venture Summit. Check out the Big Easy Ideas podcast here, hosting conversations at the intersection of Innovation x Culture.

RECENT:

Explorations into the frontiers of cultural research x cultural practice led to an experiment during the Fall 2024 election cycle: PSA4KAMALA. Contemporary social science research on the culture wars was used as the basis for artistic engagement to create a brief "Public Service Announcement” video and help #GOTV. Read about the experiment & future cultural research/practice visions here.

SPOTLIGHT:

In 2022, Liz graduated with a Master of Public Administration program from the University of New Orleans. Her capstone project — In It Together: Measuring the Effectiveness of Cross-Sector Partnerships for Emissions Reduction — is a proposed methodology to evaluate how collaborations within a designated geography can meet stated climate action goals, with a special focus on New Orleans as a focused case study.
