She brings strong skills in visual communication, story-telling, and data analysis, and is passionate about making planning more inclusive, accessible, and reflective of community voices.

Liz grew up in Southern California before moving to Atlanta, Georgia and earned her BA in Political Science from Clark Atlanta University.
