A native of Southern California, Lisa has been passionate about music since early childhood. It was also at a young age that she discovered an appreciation and joy for being a vocalist.
As you might expect, Lisa trains in classical vocals as well as in musical theatre. When not rehearsing her vocals, she continues with another musical talent, playing the piano.
At age 11, Lisa sang in the Nutcracker with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra and the American Ballet Theatre of New York, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood.
In 2002, Lisa was selected and presented the Female Vocalist of the Year Award with the Santa Clarita Children’s Chorus.
Lisa was a winner of the prestigious Omni Award for Best Classical Vocalist (under 16), and has returned to the Omni Awards presentation as a guest performer.
Lisa was a winner on TV’s America’s Most Talented Kids. This was the first time a female classical vocalist has taken top honors at her age.
Lisa sang the title vocals (Bernadette’s Theme), a David Loeb original composition, for the multi-award winning documentary “Lourdes.” www.lourdesfilm.com
Lisa was a guest solo vocalist with the Santa Clarita Youth Symphony, and David Ewart, as they performed Villa-Lobo’s Bachianas Brasiliares, a wonderful combination of vocals and strings.
Lisa has been invited, and has performed in her own style, the National Anthem at various professional sports games in Southern California.
Maintaining a 4.6 grade point average, Lisa continues to perform pieces in Latin, Italian, Spanish, English, French and German, including Lakme, Ave Maria, O mio babbino caro, Vittoria mio core, caro mio bien, Sabor a Mí, Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again, O Holy Night, and many others.
Lisa has also performed in numerous plays and musical repertoire including lead roles in Oliver (Nancy), A Midsummer’s Night Dream, Honk, and others. She has performed for the American Cancer Society, the International Family Film Festival, the Italian Arts Festival—Bella Via, and various other non-profit fundraisers.
Lisa has yet another passion. That passion is playing high level soccer where she excels at forward, mid-field, and outside mid-field. Lisa enjoys traveling with her mom, dad, and younger brother Alex, to places like the Caribbean, Alaska, Europe, and New York.
