Men Are Like Mocha Lattes

A “singleton” for longer than she cares to remember, Lisa understands all too well the desire to flee upon being asked the question “Why aren’t you married?” Far from the “Desperate Housewife” that she aspired to be, Lisa was a Desperate HomeGirl, spending her Saturday nights in front of the TV. As a lawyer-in-training with an artist’s spirit, Lisa juggled human rights courses with acting classes until she was called to the Bar of Ontario. Brief contracts with a Toronto law firm and the federal government convinced her that the pursuit of happiness would involve a more creative path. After a six-month trip to New Zealand, Lisa joined Privilege Magazine as a writer and then Editor-in-Chief, publishing several articles and interviews. She has since focused on her own writing and acting pursuits, and is a guest columnist for the Jewish Magazine. An avid traveler, Lisa has lived in France, Peru and Switzerland. Her search for Mr. Right came to an end this year when she was married in February. She currently lives in the artist-friendly community of Orangeville, Ontario with her husband Lyle and several African violets.
