Alice Fairfax was overjoyed when she landed the acting job at Disney World. There was just one problem. She needed to keep the attention of crowds and had no idea how to do it. Determined to learn the trade, she built up over 10,000 hours of performance experience. Along the way, Alice discovered the secret to engaging an audience, and it works across all domains - storytelling. Alice now helps brands tell their stories in a way that connects with employees and customers alike.
Alice has been a Walt Disney World performer for over 20 years. She is a ghostwriter, scriptwriter, keynote speaker, workshop facilitator, and author of two books on creativity and performance, The Creative Life and Tell Your Story.
