Before you get too deep, I have to spill the beans because you’ll find out sooner or later…I’m really cheesy. Like silly, dorky, and funny (although usually only I think I’m funny, but that’s ok). I say things that most people smirk at, but I believe it speaks to a piece of their soul. And I’m ok with people laughing at me or with me, as long as they’re laughing. My awkwardness and in-the-moment thoughts pour out when I’m being my true self - and that’s the best I can give you.

To ease the cheesiness, I’m also very strategic and loving. So you’ll get a mix of fun, compassion, and get-it-done accountability when you enter my world. Welcome!

As an INFJ, Lisa values being alone to reset and revive her soul.
