Fun Facts

Lisa spends most of her free time either chasing after or carting around two young boys while trying to find time to enjoy all that island life has to offer her family out in the Narragansett Bay. When not driving back and forth over bridges, watching developmental sports, or asking for hands to be kept to ourselves; favorite non-kid-centric activities include golfing badly, eating food cooked by her husband, listening to dark thrillers while taking long walks past coastal scenery and serene rolling hills, and attending live music and sporting events.
