Outreach Director

​During Lisa’s first career in the field of education, the foundation was laid for a desire to work serving others. She then sought to use her passion for the field of entertainment to serve an even bigger audience – through the lens of a camera. In making the career change to TV production, Lisa has worked as producer on a wide range of formats, from documentary and magazine formats to lifestyle and reality/follow documentary formats for such networks as CBS, Discovery, History Channel, TLC, WEtv and Lifetime. While Lisa has had many profound TV experiences as a producer, she credits two shows that profiled the underserved as the inspiration to work in the nonprofit world: the annual CBS/Children’s Action Network/Dave Thomas Foundation special, A Home for the Holidays, a show that promotes adoption through the foster care system, and WEtv’s, My Fair Wedding, in which celebrity event planner, David Tutera, gave truly deserving couples the weddings of their dreams. By joining the Streetlights’ team as Outreach Director, Lisa is thrilled to be fulfilling a dream of her own.
