Lisa was born and raised in Toronto, Canada, where she lived for 43 years before relocating to Southwest Florida in 2017. She earned an Honors Bachelor of Arts from Trent University and the University of Toronto.

She spent 13 years as a Financial and Business Analyst with the Ontario Ministries of the Attorney General and Health & Long-Term Care. There, she developed extensive experience in budgeting, funding, communications, marketing, and the management of large-scale public programs and initiatives.

After moving to Estero with her family to help expand a privately owned business, Lisa pursued a master’s degree in educational leadership at Florida Gulf Coast University. She later served as a Director of Education at a private sports academy and as an educator within the Lee County School District, strengthening her leadership, communication, and coaching skills.

In 2023, Lisa returned to her passion for finance and launched her financial advisory practice with Edward Jones. She is committed to helping individuals, families, and business owners build financial confidence through education, personalized guidance, and long-term planning.

An active member of the community, Lisa has volunteered with organizations including the Estero Council of Community Leaders, Junior Achievement, Community Cooperative, and the Walk to End Alzheimer's. She believes strongly in giving back and helping create stronger communities.

Family is at the center of Lisa's life. She and her husband, Michael, live in Estero and enjoy spending time with their children, traveling, pickleball, good food, music, and supporting the continued growth and success of the Village of Estero.
