Hi, I’m Lisa — wife, mom, recovering corporate marketing exec, and (as I like to joke) the C3PO of my life: Chief Compassion, Courage & Positivity Officer. My world is equal parts heart, hustle, and happy.

​

I believe we’re all part alchemist, part rebel, part maverick. We’re not here to play small. We’re here to play big, embrace our true selves, have fun, and answer the call of whatever lights us up. That’s the work I live and breathe — helping people and communities discover joy, purpose, and the freedom to shine.

​

By day, I’m proud to serve the City of Dripping Springs, leading communications, tourism, and community initiatives that bring people together (think: public art, citywide celebrations, and starry-sky magic).

 

By heart, I’m the founder of Camp Atta Girl!, The Happiness Element, and the Be an Adorable Badass podcast — spaces where women and organizations tap into happiness science, movement, creativity, and soulful connection to transform their lives. Whether through retreats, workshops, or a simple conversation, my mission is to help people be a little braver, a little happier, and a lot more themselves.

 

My biggest joys in life are my family — my husband, son, daughter, our dog, and cats. My second-biggest joy is helping others find their happy place in this wild, beautiful world — one woman, one organization, one community at a time.

Thanks for stopping by — and remember: life’s too short to dim your sparkle!
