She earned her Certified Senior Advisor (CSA)® credential in 2007 and her Board Certified Patient Advocate (BCPA) credential in June 2020.

In her first career, Elisabeth worked 25 years in the U.S. Government, 22 of them as a Foreign Service Officer with the U.S. Department of State during which she earned nine prestigious Honor Awards. She holds a master’s degree from Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service and a Bachelor’s Degree in French Studies from the American University in Paris, France and the Sorbonne. The gift of her daughter’s survival from an inoperable pediatric brainstem tumor in 1998 led Elisabeth to her new calling as a patient advocate so that she can champion, educate and solve problems for patients and families.
