Lisa joined The Women's Foundation in 2011 and became Senior Director, Research & Advocacy in January 2024.

She also leads advocacy efforts that aim to challenge and transform existing attitudes and behaviours that are preventing women and girls from fully participating in society through cross-sector campaigns as well as sector-specific actions.
