GET A TICKET to the July 31 show in LIttleton! I met Stephanie at a Denver event, and wanted to deconstruct her sense of humor - which reminded me so much of Mike Birbiglia.

Nine months after her first time on stage, Stephanie won a trip to the Las Vegas Comedy Festival and has been on the Denver comedy scene for over 17 years. Stephanie is passionate about empowering and coaching speakers and entrepreneurs on how they can add humor to their presentations to create more engagement with their audience. She has developed a Be Funnier! Short and Sweet Coaching Package and she offers motivational speaking on the following topics: Be Funnier! How to Add Humor to Your Presentation and The Importance of Laughter.
