Her path took an exciting turn when she was invited to compete in a Pre-Olympic Triathlon in Albertville, France in 1990. This event exposed her to the thrill of cross-country skiing, archery, and snowshoeing, igniting her interest in athleticism. From that moment, Lisa's passion for wellness began to flourish, leading her into the world of fitness and well-being.

Now, with over 30 years of experience in the fitness, nutrition and wellness industry, Lisa has made it her mission to motivate individuals to Make Wellness a Priority and Bring health to Health and Safety.

Throughout the years, Lisa has faced various physical challenges, including chronic migraines, scoliosis, osteoarthritis, and dance-related injuries, as well as symptoms of ADHD and anxiety. These challenges have inspired her to prioritize both her mental and physical well-being, maintaining healthy habits such as nourishing eating, regular yoga practice, and prioritizing restful sleep. Lisa has also passed on these valuable habits to her three children, and she takes joy in witnessing her husband's commitment to his own health and well-being.  As she lives a breathes the concept of Making Wellness a Priority you will often find Lisa volunteering to teach yoga everywhere she spends her time including her own dock, Costa Rica, around the Caribbean and even on long airline flights.
