The building industry in Texas was the wild wild west of the business world, smoky back room deals, good ol boy networks, and shady bankers made the headlines, but there was light at the end of the long twisted tunnel.

She survived housing booms and busts, got married had kids and raised a family. Along the way Lisa learned many things about life, business, being a mom, being a wife and respecting the people around her.
