Lisa graduated from Bryant University with a bachelors degree in Accounting and went to work on Wall Street for several years. She started raising chickens in 2009 and shortly after started blogging about it. More than 800+ blog posts on her original site Fresh Eggs Daily, 6 books on raising chickens, and a social media platform with nearly 1 million followers later, she decided to pivot and focus on the culinary side of eggs as well.
