Lisa graduated with a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Psychology and a minor in French from Mount Allison University in 2020. During her undergraduate, she took active leadership roles with several groups on campus, including serving as co-chair of the Relay for Life chapter, Vice President Public Relations of the Habitat for Humanity chapter, and serving on the Graduate Executive, among others.
Lisa’s passion for volunteerism and nonprofits led her to the MPNL program. She has a passion for criminal justice reform and incarceration-related programs, which she hopes to further explore during her time in the program. She hopes to learn how nonprofits can play a role in improving the reality of the criminal justice system and how nonprofits can be used as a tool for public policy and advocacy.
Lisa is excited to continue her education at Carleton University and looks forward to learning from her peers about the current and future trends of nonprofits, all while strengthening her leadership skills.
In her spare time, Lisa is often found with her Australian Shepherd, Bandit, and going on hikes, baking and cooking.
