The Thing I Do show was created at the onset of the pandemic to share happiness for children and educators.

She feels like she does not belong, or that no one understands her, until she meets a new friend, Woof the Crow. The book series offers social emotional learning components (empathy, kindness, love, belonging, believing in others, feelings and more). Lisa has been featured in FORBES magazine, ABC News, CBS news, USA today newspapers, and more media and news outlets.
When students ask about why Lisa is passionate about writing, she will say, “I grew up shy and introverted. My only voice was on paper.” With that said, this Latina author has created a world-class brand around a unicorn named Unicorn Jazz, with animal friends and ocean animal characters.

She relied on her public relations and broadcast radio experience and years of producing shows for FM and AM stations. A year later, she has launched Unicorn Jazz Presents The Thing I Do that is on Amazon TV/Prime with a full season launching summer 2021!
