Meet Dr. Lisa Norman, Keynote Speaker
Dr. Lisa Norman was born and raised in Dalton. A graduate of Wake Forest University and Emory School of Medicine, she is a practicing physician living in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with her husband and four children. She values faith and family above all and has a deep love for the arts, especially piano and dance. As a former exchange student in Argentina and Spain, she also has a special appreciation for Hispanic cultures.
Lisa’s love for poetry began in childhood and continues today. Inspired by her own children, she created the ‘Ellie Asks’ book series to teach fundamental virtues like hope, love, and gratitude. While Ellie is based on her oldest daughter, Lisa instills these values in all her children and now shares them with young readers. In a world of social media and outside influences, she emphasizes the power of simple virtues in shaping young hearts and minds.
