As a former licensed Landscape Architect, Lisa brings a design mindset to every project. Her unique ability to understand and leverage the intrinsic relationship between brand identity and other types of design allows her to approach visioning and strategy from a comprehensive perspective. With a B.A. in Art and decades of experience on both the client and designer side, she excels at creating inventive solutions for real-world use. approach is rooted in an intimate and authentic understanding of the clients’ goals, and she excels at guiding them step-by-step through the process of building their business identity. Her big-picture thinking extends beyond the project and the client as she strives to meaningfully embed each project within larger community and industry contexts.
