Lisa earned her bachelors degree in environmental studies and geography in 2002. In July of 2005, after working for two years in construction project administration at UCSB, she joined the Cearnal Collective team to pursue a career in architecture.  

The influence of her educational background in studio art and environmental and earth science drives her to create spaces that are beautiful, functional, and sustainable.  

Lisa has experience working on a wide variety of projects, including tenant improvements, high-end custom residential, and multi-unit residential. With a passion for the environment and sustainability, Lisa strives to bring green design and materials into every project. Lisa is currently studying to become a LEED accredited professional.

When away from the office, Lisa enjoys spending time with her amazing daughter, growing veggies in her garden, running, camping and riding her dirt bike.
