Lisa moved around a bit after graduating college, just trying to figure it out. While living in Baltimore in the mid 90’s, she was fortunate enough to realize her dream of taking her singing to the next level and sang professionally in the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra Chorus. Once married, she settled in the Lehigh Valley.
Lisa and her husband separated in 2009 and divorced in 2011. She and her young adult twins are survivors of domestic abuse. They were fortunate enough to have an amazing tribe to help them navigate the rocky waters of years in the system. Lisa realized so many are not as lucky. While living through her own nightmare, she chose to fight for others and began raising funds for Turning Point of the Lehigh Valley in hopes of helping survivors find their way to a better life. It has been a long-time dream of hers to host an annual Celebrity Golf Event to raise more awareness, education and funds for this wonderful cause and to make a difference in someone’s life. The 2023 event was a huge success!
When her kids were young, Lisa was busy building her career as a Commercial Real Estate Agent while fighting to keep her kids safe and happy. Lisa and her kids are proof you can beat the odds and build something amazing!
Lisa believes in working hard, playing hard, loving with an open heart, and giving back to those less fortunate.
“I am overwhelmed with pride and joy to see this dream come true! I am forever grateful for everyone who helped make this possible.”
