As a young sapling growing up in North Carolina, Tree Branch dreamed of one day fulfilling her purpose in the world of corporate improv.* After a decade of pursuing that dream, she joined the Second City team in March as a senior client partner and soon after graduated from the Conservatory Program. Tree approaches business development in the same way she approaches scene work: by focusing on the relationship first. Prior to joining The Second City, she spent five years in the online training and development space as the director of growth for a business education company. She graduated from High Point University, where she studied behavioral psychology in context of organizational development. *Tree is self-aware and understands that such dreams are atypical for young saplings.
