Lisa accepted the invitation to serve on the InfoWorks Board in January 2022. She has a background in accounting and finance, and a thorough knowledge of all facets pertaining to a company’s financial operations. Currently, Lisa holds the position of Senior Vice President, Strategic Finance Analytics for Ascension. She is responsible for and has oversight of dynamic financial planning processes, capital planning, improved analytics and reporting, and mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures. A philosophy she lives by is to always surround yourself with people who are smarter than you and value collaboration. She believes this builds great teams which can grow and learn from each other.
