I have had the pleasure of serving as a panelist alongside Tracy. She has a way of asking questions to create another layer of insight that adds depth to discussions. I have been public speaking for many years and her approach is so unique and personable I believe it translates to many industries and perspectives. She is an engaging and thoughtful presenter as she anticipates the curiosities of listeners and finds ways to connect to the audience whether for 15 minutes or hours.

Tracy's wealth of knowledge and storytelling style is frankly unmatched in ecom. I've had the pleasure of interviewing Tracy on my podcast, The Weekly Fraudcast, as well as interviewing with Tracy in person at conferences, and Tracy has ALWAYS lit up the stage and screen with excellent insights and unmatched energy. If Tracy's on the agenda, I'm there. If Tracy's speaking, I'm listening. A true gem and 1 of 1 in our world of cookie-cutter voices. I simply cannot recommend Tracy enough!
