Originally from Wisconsin, she now resides in La Crescent, MN. She is a self proclaimed harvester of humor, a goofy friend, embarrassing mom and prank ninja! She also runs an award-winning comedy troupe called Heart of La Crosse.
As if all of that isn’t enough, she has a full-time day job as an administrative assistant and records manager at a police department. 
This event is free and open to the public. Lisa will have books available for sale.
