Why she started 11:11 Events & Co
In Lisa's words: “I was born and raised in the Inland Empire and graduated from my alma mater, San Gorgonio High School. Go Spartans! My hospitality passion began in 2005 at Niko Niko Sushi in Redlands as a cashier, and from there I worked my way up to becoming a waitress, where I found my niche.”
“In 2007, I was hired for a new venue at Canton Bistro in Redlands, and quickly I was trained to bartend the nightlife. That's where I found my new love in bartending and the opportunities it opened.”
When Canton Bistro closed in 2011, Lisa had her son that May and found a home at Dave & Buster's for the next nine years. There she became the corporate trainer for the company and helped open six new locations across Arizona, California, Washington and Alaska.
“In 2020, abruptly the world changed, and so did my career and desires. I challenged myself to enter the world of management at Yaamava' Resort and Casino. For four years I gained a lot of experience in the business and in leading people, and built the confidence to finally take the leap of faith and start my own business.”
The mission
“I would like to welcome friends, families and supporters, past, present and future, to my new endeavors in creating new experiences with mobile bar services, rentals and trainings.”
