Hello! I’m Lisa

Msc., E.I.T, CISM

Calgary

Polymath combining technical expertise, creative expression, and systems thinking to solve complex challenges across multiple disciplines. M.Sc. engineer turned regulatory strategist, published researcher, conference speaker, and cultural catalyst.

Current Intersections:

  • Vice Chair of CSA Z246.1 (Canada's federal energy infrastructure standard)

  • Communications Director, ISACA Calgary

  • Board Member, Rural Routes 2 Climate Solutions (TBD)

My work lives at the intersection of data security, strategic communication, food systems, and community resilience. I believe the future requires leaders who can bridge technical depth with cultural understanding—whether developing cybersecurity frameworks for critical infrastructure, facilitating stakeholder alignment across government and industry, or exploring regenerative agriculture through hands-on farm engagement.
