Liza loves relationship building and it’s one of the things she does best. It was at the heart of her two-decade career in higher education finance marketing and she has brought this to the VABLN. For Liza, the key to relationship building is ensuring that everyone is included, listened to, respected and appreciated.

“I have been a person both with and without eyesight during my career,” explained Liza. “Having this uncommon experience has given me significant insight that I like to share with others as to the interesting challenges and wonderful opportunities that come with employing individuals with disabilities.”

Liza is a member of Richmond SHRM, Richmond Area Diversity Roundtable, and the Virginia Voice Board of Directors. After losing her sight, Liza took up hang-gliding and bicycling. She’s flown tandem on 40 hang-gliding flights. In 2001, she pedaled 2,300 miles on a tandem bicycle.
