Lisa Maynard

Chief People Officer (CPO)

I am an Oregon State Beaver who enjoys watching college sports (not Pro Sports). I used to be a Soccer Mom but now I'm a Lacrosse and Basketball Mom. I have a habit of reading books at night and not doing laundry. I am a person with a TON of ideas and then find someone who will help me execute my “change the world plans.” My tagline in life is “it all works out in the end. If not, then it’s not the end – keep rolling."
