Hello! My name is Lis, and I’m a traveler, writer, and consultant looking to make the most of my time on this globe. My story began in rural upstate New York where I grew up as part of a big family in a small town. It was here where I solidified my life’s mission: live the most fulfilling life possible.

I always believed this life would take place in the magnificent city of New York. Finally, after graduating from the University of Connecticut, then living and working outside of Hartford for a few years, and then spending a few more in San Antonio; I was able to call Manhattan my home.

It was in New York where I solidified bonds with some of my greatest friends, started my consulting business, and figured out that even though I thought I was living my most fulfilling life, I was, in fact, doing it all wrong.

With these realizations I left New York for rural Washington State where I reconnected with my soul, validated I could live a location independent life, and reinvigorated my love of writing. I still wasn’t doing it ALL right, but my life had become much more fulfilling and I knew I was on the right path.

Now I’m on the next phase of my journey; a life unattached to any physical address. This will be a life where the only constant I’ll have around will be… well, me. I’m unsure what I’ll find on this leg of the journey, but I am sure I’ll find something worthwhile. Whatever comes my way, I plan on keeping you posted as I go.


Below you’ll find out more about all the things to architect my fullest life.
