She's also a thought nerd, word geek and deed doer, an ex academic, ex-corporate Lawyer and bad musician. Studying arts/law at Sydney University Alice was heavily involved in the Improvised Comedyscene and the Faculty Revues over 5 years of writing, directing, producing and performing. During her Masters in English Literature (Rhetoric) at Cambridge, she carried her love of sketch comedy writing and performing into the Cambridge Footlights. Arriving in New York all alone, she began to focus on stand-up comedy and since then has performed all over the world, in Sydney, Cambridge, New York and London. She returned from New York to work full time as a lawyer at Allens Linklaters, returning to the Sydney comedy scene to win the inaugural Homebake Comedy Competition, was nominated for best newcomer at the Sydney Comedy Festival 2013 and has given up law to pursue comedy and writing full time.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
