Training programs include Boston Ballet, Washington Ballet, The Joffrey Ballet NYC (Scholarship through Trinette Singleton), The Paul Taylor Studio, STEPS on Broadway (Full Scholarship), The Russian Ballet Theatre of Delaware, Ballet Theatre Pennsylvania, Brandywine Ballet, The Dance Center in West Chester, PA (where I later taught a range of students in various disciplines), Harrisburg Dance Conservatory, and Harrison’s Dance Studios. Early performances spanned from TV episodes of The Al Alberts Showcase to ballet solo variations under the coaching of Lupe Serrano.

Voice: At 14 Elizabeth trained with Cal Brackin at The Clydn Center in West Chester, PA with whom she studied till beginning college at New York University’s Tisch School of The Arts for Drama.

At NYU, she attended The Collaborative Arts Project of the 21st Century/ “CAP21”.  Her junior year she was accepted into NYU’s Transfer Track of The Experimental Theatre Wing (ETW) and spent her last year at NYU within The Classical Studio under Louis Scheeder, Artistic Director, studying Shakespeare. Upon graduation, she trained at Weist-Barron Film and TV School and with Barry Shapiro for On-Camera Commercial work.
