About
So there you are, hunched over a hot keyboard, trying to find the pitch-perfect keynote speaker or emcee for your Seattle area event. Preferably someone funny, entertaining, professional. A pro at public speaking who can customize the presentation to your needs, your messaging. Ideally, you'd prefer to find a woman speaker, but that seems harder than you'd think*.
(*It's not you: interesting/sad/weird statistic: 70% of U.S. keynote speakers are male.)
If you need some razzle dazzle, an amazing keynote about leaning in to adversity, someone who has that je ne sais pas, TLC is the gal for the job.
TLC, a.k.a Tracey Croisier, is one of those rare breeds: a multi-faceted jackie-of-all-trades with decades of public speaking experience. Some say she's the "Moth-iest" storyteller on the West Coast.

TESTIMONIALS
Kent Whipple

I first met Tracey at the Fresh Ground Stories ten years ago. I was so impressed with her that I invited her to be a guest storyteller at UP's Inside Story.
She was such a fan favorite; I have invited her back several times. Each story was better than the previous. She has an open invitation to share her stories at any show I produce.
If you are looking for a boring, cookie-cutter storyteller,
However, if you need an exceptional, creative, motivated, smart creator then Tracey's one of the best in Seattle.
She has an open invitation to share her stories at any show I produce.

It was a true pleasure to watch Tracey Croisier bring her story to life at the StorySlam at the 2026 Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle, Washington.
She has an incredible ability to balance humor with heart, making you laugh one moment and reflect the next. You can tell she cares deeply about the stories she tells and the people she is telling them to. Her quick wit had the audience laughing throughout, and her genuine and effortless interactions fostered a meaningful connection with her audience. Tracey has a real talent for reading the room, delivering perfectly timed humor, and keeping the energy high without missing a beat.

Fresh Ground Stories
When Tracey tells a story, people talk about it on the way home.
I consistently book Tracey for storytelling showcases in Seattle because I know her writing and performing will be exceptional as well as professional.
I’ve been producing and performing in shows for three decades, I know how rare it is to get both of those qualities in one person.
She respects her audiences by respecting her craft.
