Rev. Lisa Rae Brooks, Neighbor

Rev. Lisa Rae retired from the Telecommunications Industry as a mid-level executive after 25 years in various positions including Sales, System Design and Development, Marketing, Pricing, Project Management, Program Management, Training, Training Development, Training Management, and Sales Operations Support. As she left the business world, she was the Director of a team of 23 dynamic professionals in the area of ordering and implementing complex telecom networks. She received several awards from within her organization, but one of her most prized awards was being named the 2012 Woman of the Year by the National Association of Professional Women.

Her 15 years in the area of training helped her understand the gift of teaching and helping people understand complex concepts in a relatively easy fashion. Through her development and delivery of classroom teaching materials and on-line course development, she learned how to enable learners with the ability to accept and understand complex technical concepts and business applications in ways that they would never have thought possible.
