Rancic is a force both on-camera and off but her remarkable success didn’t come easily. She is a true result of “The American Dream” and an inspiration to people, both young and old. She was born in Naples, Italy, in a modest neighborhood, and moved to the United States when she was a little girl. Her love affair with television journalism began before she could even speak English – her parents couldn’t afford a tutor, so she learned the language by watching TV. She received a bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Maryland and a master’s degree in journalism from American University. While in attendance, Giuliana worked for a Capitol Hill news bureau covering a number of stories related to the Pentagon, Supreme Court, White House and State Department.

We absolutely loved having Giuliana speak at our 600 person Women’s Luncheon. During the planning process she was extremely easy to work with. She found time in her busy schedule to have a call with us so her talking points would be in alignment with our goals for the event. She even rattled off her ideas for talking points to us to ensure we would be happy with them. During the event she was so gracious with all our guests, and willingly engaged with the women in the VIP with genuine interest. It was so refreshing to have Giuliana and definitely made the VIP a special event for our major sponsors. Her remarks were spot on! We have received SO much positive feedback from our whole audience. It is tricky for us to find a speaker to appeal to the strong business women and a fun pop culture 'girls day out' Giuliana fit the bill perfectly. We would highly recommend her!
