Here’s My Story

G'day! I'm Lisy, a videogame and tech leader with a particular love for building and leading happy and engaged teams. I've grown studios, shipped games, solved a million problems - I'm a force multiplier with a pinch of optimism.

 

I thrive in the strategic business world in order to create solid foundations for creativity.
