Dawn Ziegerer holds a Master's degree in Media Studies from Penn State, which equipped her with a strong theoretical foundation in media and storytelling. She taught in the English department at PSU for a few years, then went back into country radio where she spent 8 years working as an on-air personality. That's where she honed her communication skills and developed a deep understanding of audience engagement.
​​
In addition to her media experience, Dawn has a passion for storytelling that she brings to local storytelling events.
For the last 4 years, Dawn has been working as a coach and facilitator. She's delivered these workshops at prestigious institutions and Fortune 500 companies, helping professionals harness the power of storytelling. She also works as an independent contractor and has recently facilitated workshops at companies such as these.

The Great Story Workshop is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
​We aim to adhere as closely as possible to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0, Level AA), published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).These guidelines explain how to make Web content more accessible for people with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines will help make the web more user friendly to everyone. Whilst I strive to adhere to the guidelines and standards for accessibility, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website and we are currently working to achieve this. Be aware that due to the dynamic nature of the website, minor issues may occasionally occur as it is updated regularly. We are continually seeking out solutions that will bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall web accessibility. If you have any comments and or suggestions relating to improving the accessibility of our site, please don't hesitate to contact me via the "Let's Chat" section. Your feedback will help us make improvements.
