She has worked for several years with children with learning difficulties, providing assistance in their daily study as well as in the development of their speech and expression.

Elizabeth, in addition to Greek, which is her native language, speaks English and French. In 2017, she got married to her College Sweetheart and they moved to New York a year later, where they now live and work permanently. Elizabeth, as the surgical coordinator at Metro Eye MD, is dedicated to helping patients before and after their eye procedures, providing information on the entire process so patients know what to expect, guiding them step by step through each phase and making sure that their experience will be as enjoyable and stress-free as possible.

In her free time, Elizabeth enjoys reading books and going on outings with her husband. Her dream is to travel to as many countries in the world as she can.
