Lisa Blumetti, a Florida native, was raised and educated in New York State, spent several years living abroad, then settled in South Florida at the end of 1997. She received her undergraduate degree in psychology from SUNY Buffalo then continued her studies in educational psychology at SUNY Albany. She worked in public relations and marketing for two years before moving to Japan in 1993 to teach English. She returned to the States in the middle of 1997 and moved to Hollywood, FL in December of that year, one week before her 30th birthday.
She went to work for The Princeton Review, teaching small group classes and doing private tutoring for standardized testing. Most of her students were high school or college juniors and seniors vying for acceptance to very competitive universities. She attained the level of Premier Tutor, in part due to her students’ marked improvement on their SAT, GRE and GMAT exams. In 1999, she also began volunteering as a Guardian Ad Litem for the Broward County Department of Children and Families. In that capacity, her duties included visiting and interviewing children in foster care and testifying in court on their behalf.
In 2007 she moved to Miami Beach and has been a resident of Dade county ever since. She continued tutoring until 2010 at which point her path took a slightly different direction and she began working in the field of wholesale jewelry. Her personal belief in the successful integration of conventional medicine and alternative modalities serves to further strengthen her conviction that H3 is a vital and powerful gift to the community. She currently serves as a Chairperson on the Board of Directors of H3 and has been involved with the organization since its inception.
