Liz began her search career in 1997 at Schall Executive Search and was the first search consultant hired by David as he expanded his practice beyond a sole proprietorship. Liz has added tremendous value to the firm and was a natural fit for the search business based on the success of her early career in human resources and sales. In addition, Liz's ability to assess talent, keen attention to detail, sense of urgency and follow through, and conscientious nature have served the firm's clients well. She has completed many of the firm's senior level assignments across a broad spectrum of industries, including consumer products, retail, financial services, advertising, public relations, non-profit, and real estate. Her functional expertise includes placing executives into C-Level and general management roles as well as leaders in marketing, human resources, finance, operations, engineering, and sales. Prior to joining Schall Executive Search, Liz started her career at American Express Financial Advisors (now Ameriprise) where she initially worked within Institutional Retirement Services administering the American Express Company 401(k) before transitioning into human resources, where she supported Tax and Business Services focusing on mergers and acquisitions. Liz earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication from St. Norbert College in Green Bay, Wisconsin. She and her husband Mark live in Minneapolis with their twin daughters Isabella and Emilia.
