About Molly
Rarely do you find a combination of original material, solid content, and hysterical delivery. Molly delivers.
As the former director of sales and marketing for two hotels, the general manager of an upscale athletic club and the co-founder of an improv and sketch comedy company, Molly understands business and people.
Her perspective and experience on what it takes to inspire people to outstanding results in a range of businesses from healthcare to technology, real estate, hospitality and retail has distinguished her as a highly sought after speaker. Her expertise in writing and performing comedy with a message (and okay, sometimes without a message-- it’s just plain funny) has been used in short film production and live stage performances.
Molly blends her business, education and improvisation background to connect body, mind and spirit to show people how to become more effective professionally and personally and to help people to live a more joyful life. As the caregiver to her mother, who had cancer, and the primary caregiver to her father, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, she lives her message of the importance of being in the moment and paying attention--every day.
"Molly, you hit it out of the ballpark!"
