    Nancy studied interior design at UCLA, and worked as a contract designer doing commercial work for restaurants, hotels and homes. Her interest in design took her to places like Paris and France to study art and architecture. Along the way, she had also worked as a legal secretary in law firms, but her most interesting work has been as the Elizabeth Taylor LOOKALIKE.
    In 1988, a friend of Nancy's suggested that she send in her photo to a celebrity LOOKALIKE agent. She was immediately called as Liz for corporate functions. The timing couldn't have been more perfect. At the time, Liz was in the public eye with a new fragrance, book and husband. Work poured in for Nancy.
    Nancy does not mistake her own identity and that of her character Liz. Since Nancy has looked like Elizabeth Taylor her whole life, she has become accustomed to being stared at, or mistaken for the star. However, Nancy says that working as a LOOKALIKE has given her the opportunity to feel what it must be like to be a celebrity for a day. LOOKALIKE work has also helped her to play the role. Working in this field has brought many new and wonderful things to Nancy's life. She is grateful to the friends she has met, places she has traveled to and the opportunity to get a glimpse into the entertainment world of film, television and performing.
    Nancy recalls the time she met her inspiration. She's a true survivor, her compassion for others in need, her loyalty, her unique and full life while always in the public eye and her ability to cope with judgment and scrutiny, is amazing, to say the least. I have met her briefly and found her to be very earthy, with a great sense of humor. She's a very tiny woman for the great amount of clout and power that she possesses.
    Nancy feels her similarities to Elizabeth are a gift. Nancy has worked almost fulltime as a celebrity LOOKALIKE for film, television, print, commercials and on the corporate circuit. As a professional actress she has appeared on numerous television shows such as The Joan Rivers Show, Entertainment Tonight, Dream On, Hard Copy and Inside Edition. Her film credits include Dave, Postcards from the Edge, Sister Act H and Repossessed.
