What excites you most about working at Jpixx?
The Team! Everyone here at Jpixx is so welcoming, helpful and incredibly talented!
What sparked your interest in the entertainment industry?
When I was in high school, I watched “Eat, Drink, Man, Woman,” by Ang Lee, and that opening sequence made me fall in love with how film can evoke emotion, awe and inspiration.
What do you like to do in your free time?
I enjoy listening to live music and anything that involves being outdoors.
What’s your go-to karaoke song?
ABBA’s “Dancing Queen,” hands down.
Fun facts about yourself?
There are so many…lol. I was onstage with Green Day at Woodstock ‘94! It was epic!
(See if you can spot Lisa backstage in this video! *hint, she’s wearing a pink shirt!*)
Tell us about some of the coolest projects you’ve worked on throughout your career.
Before my career in television and film, I worked in the music industry and got to tour with Youssou N’Dour, The Grateful Dead, and Peter Gabriel (pictured below, left to right).
What advice would you give to someone entering the creative world?
Don’t be afraid to start at the bottom and work your way up; there is so much to gain when you work in every aspect of the industry. And, be persistent! If you want it, make it happen.
