Hi, I'm Lisa phrase.

A Bay Area native, I’ve always been passionate about helping others. I can remember taking a career assessment in middle school and “Personnel Professional” was at the top of the list. While still in college, I started working in HR as the Receptionist at San Jose Medical Center and this evolved into a fulfilling professional career working in Corporate Human Resources for over 25 years, nine of which were at Apple.

Throughout my tenure, I managed multi-million dollar budgets for compensation programs overseeing the financial planning of new hire packages, annual salary reviews, bonus programs, and stock grants. I demonstrated a high level of integrity, attention to detail, and a genuine care for the people behind the numbers. My background in managing employee comp plans, problem solving employee situations, and adhering to confidentiality in all aspects of my work, is the foundation I bring to every client relationship as a Daily Money Manager. I understand the significance of protecting one’s privacy and the weight of being trusted with someone else’s most private information.

I also have experience with older adults facing cognitive decline. My mother-in-law was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at the age of 60 and lived with this condition for 13 years. I know firsthand the impact this disease has on the caregivers and the importance of a great support system. I understand the family dynamics and the emotional rollercoaster families go through when a loved one needs more support.

I am a member of the American Association of Daily Money Managers (AADMM), and uphold the code of ethics and professional standards for every client I serve.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband and two grown kids, walking along the beach, volunteering at Grey Bears, and enjoying a latte at a local coffeehouse.
