A former legal secretary and office manager, Lisa Maxwell worked for a local law practice for more than 20 years before joining the Foundation in 2003. In addition to supporting Mott’s president and CEO, she also serves as executive assistant to the Board of Trustees. She is affectionately considered something of an air traffic controller by Foundation employees.

Maxwell attended Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant for two years and completed her bachelor’s degree in human resource management at Michigan’s Spring Arbor University.
