Elizabeth Szabo is a Pittsburgh native and lifelong resident. After graduating from Washington
& Jefferson College with a double B.A. in Psychology and English, she subsequently earned her
J.D. from The University of Pittsburgh School of Law with an emphasis on Intellectual Property
& Technology Law. After her admission to the Pennsylvania Bar, Liz worked as an attorney for
years, including as a law clerk to a Federal Judge and as an attorney representing indigent
clients at a nonprofit legal services organization in the region.
Liz’s true passion has always been in hospitality and, after seeing a void in the Pittsburgh
market for smoothies, particularly nutritional meal replacements, she became determined to
introduce smoothies to the Pittsburgh area. Recognizing Smoothie King as the leader in the
industry, she decided to become a franchisee, ultimately opening two stores in 2016, one of
which is a drive-thru-only location in Bridgeville, and the other a freestanding location in
Wexford, PA, which offers both drive-thru and walk-in service. While she remains a licensed
attorney, she left the practice of law to focus full-time on her locations once joining the brand.
With the only two locations to date in the entirety of Western Pennsylvania, Smoothie King
Bridgeville and Smoothie King Wexford were voted First Place Best Smoothie by Pittsburgh City
Paper’s “Best Of” Readers’ Choice poll in both 2020 and 2021.
