Bio
Craig Edwards
I have supervised Lisa as an English adjunct at Indiana Wesleyan University. I found her to be an excellent, knowledgeable, and incredibly nurturing teacher. She is very conscientious, contributes excellent ideas to the English program, and is always open to new learning opportunities. She is often a strong person of faith and brings all the virtues of her beliefs to her professional and personal life.
Sean Tomondi
Lisa was always a very pleasant coworker. We did not work together directly but she was always very outgoing and approachable. She always gave great advice either personal or work related. I would definitely recommend her on any team she is very hard working and takes pride in what she does.
