Liz Gorgue is an executive coach and chief of staff to technology leaders and their teams. She is the mother of twin daughters entering their teens. In her work with Wine and Dresses, Liz hopes to inspire her girls and demonstrate that we can have personal impact and grow hope through focused action and working as a team.

One of her proudest achievements is having volunteer project managed “EpicThanks”, a campaign widely recognized as a groundbreaking use of Twitter for fundraising purposes, which raised the initial capital funding to build Shepherd’s Junior School in Arusha, Tanzania. Liz’s hobbies include singing in the choir Voices Rock, a 25+ year Bikram Yoga practice, swimming, reading, competing in events with Denver Trivia League, and spending time in nature.
