Lisa Collander is a tea drinking, board game loving lady living in Bellingham, WA. The upper left PNW has been Lisa's home for the better part of her life, but Sweden was home for her first four years. For the past 5+ years, Lisa's full time day job was at Western Washington University. She filled the role of shop technician for the Industrial Design program (the same program she graduated from). Days were filled with helping students make their product design concepts come to life through the use of a wide array of tools and materials. All this to say, she's an avid maker and thrives off of being surrounded by curious, creative minds.

The road to forming Lisa Lisa Made more formally has been filled with a huge variety in types of designing, dreaming and making.

Lisa can be found:
- sewing anything & everything with her 6+ sewing machines crammed into her home studio - with a machines ranging from a walking foot cylinder arm to an industrial needle feed straight stitch to a 1969 darning machine - the breadth of projects goes far & wide
- avidly designing and 3D printing with her Bambu X1 Carbon
- brewing new lighting design ideas (in the background of her brain at all times)
- using a craft knife to do fine paper cut art
- occasionally weaving on her loom, dabbling in felting & dyeing textiles
- dreaming of being able to design and produce slip cast ceramic home goods
