Lissa's journey on the New York stage began at a young age, with numerous plays becoming her second home as she grew. She landed starring roles in notable productions such as "Annie," "The Diary of Anne Frank," and several others, further solidifying her passion for the performing arts.
As she matured, Lissa's talents extended beyond the stage, with appearances in regional commercials and independent films. By her mid-teens, she had developed a strong foundation, ready to spread her wings to new horizons. In 2006, Lissa and her family relocated to Los Angeles, marking the beginning of a new chapter in her career.
Since her move, Lissa has booked several TV pilots and films, including her L.A. debut role in "All Ages Night," now available on Starz and Encore, and "Weeds." She has also starred in a new teen web series, "Two Guys and a Girl," and made her feature film debut as the lead in "Spare Change," produced by the same team behind "Orange is the New Black."
