Lisa found the sport of Boxing in 2014 after working at a community center and becoming curious about the sport. In 2018, she joined the Army as an opportunity to take advantage of many of the benefits that were offered, and later joined the World Class Athlete Program to continue to pursue her passion of Boxing. Lisa's motivation stems from knowing there's an opportunity to be the best she can be, knowing there's someone working harder out there means that she has to work harder than them. Lisa is proud to be able to defend and serve her country, while still being awarded the opportunity to do what she loves.

When you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit.
