Ashley England

I coach high-performing teams to say more with less — and make it stick.

  • Comedian at Upright Citizens Brigade NY & Second City Chicago, and one eventful cruise ship

  • Learning & Development Expert at places like Northwestern University, Sotheby’s, WeWork, and Netflix

  • Founder, STAGECOACH

I’m not just a third-party facilitator learning a script — I’m the person they’d ask to write the workshop.

Why Stagecoach?

✔ Relevant. Ashley has worked inside top tech companies, presenting to sharp cross-functional teams, skeptical stakeholders, and highly analytical engineers. She’s coached over 90 of them to communicate clearly and confidently in fast-paced, high-pressure environments. This isn’t a cookie-cutter curriculum from a third-party vendor — it’s training built for the real challenges your team actually faces.

✔ Fun. As a professional comedian and actor, Ashley makes workshops engaging, interactive, and (most importantly) not boring. Your time is valuable, and learning should be something people want to do — not something they endure. The bonus? They’ll actually remember it.

✔ Useful. These strategies work immediately — for your next presentation, your next meeting, or even your next awkwardly long Slack message.
