Lisa’s career has run the gamut of traditional to contemporary arts & more. Trained in the Fine Arts, she worked in metalsmithing and ceramics and, as a painter, has works shown in the Bay Area and held in collection. Joining the digital arts & technology wave at it’s inception, Lisa worked many years in the Bay Area Biotechnology community, doing CAD and CAM work for mechanical & electrical engineering. Continuing that digital trajectory she moved into 2d & 3d design for print and web, creating work for such companies as Bayer, Chiron, HP/Agilent Technologies, and a host of other small and large businesses; as well as pro bono work for local non-profits. She has grown up inside the digital wave, speaking Dos, PC, MAC and Linux, familiar with cross-platform conundrums, troubleshooting travails and cable splitting - but still has an ear for the music of graphite across paper and brush on canvas.
Lisa is also an instructor in Animation & Visual Effects.
