I am Nurse Lisa. I graduated from River Ridge High School and Highland Community College. I am married to Lloyd, and we have four daughters who all have (or still do) attend River Ridge. Prior to joining the River Ridge staff 18 years ago, I have worked in Labor & Delivery, Pediatrics and at various Doctors' offices. My philosophy of school nursing is that I am here to keep kids in school. If there is a way that I can help them make it through the day, I will.

In my "spare" time I run the clock and keep book for Volleyball, Girl's Basketball and Softball. My favorite thing to do is attend my daughter's sporting events. I like to read, play cards, swim, play computer games and spend time on Apple Canyon Lake in the summer.
