LISA MOONO - FEMME EXTRAORDINAIRE

WHO IS LISA MOONO?

Mali - like the country writes....

An actress, an entrepreneur and pioneer in her field of expertise. First time I saw Lisa acting was with UNZADRUMS in their yearly show "Kojo". It was then that I got captivated by her incredible acting persona. The Lisa I saw on stage that day was way different from the Lisa I had met in person, and I do not mean that negatively. I was mesmerized by her ability to pull off jokes and seem laissez-faire because the Lisa I knew was as determined as bulldog with its jaws clasped on. The Lisa I saw that day was so funny it was crazy for me.
Meeting her later after the show, I had a new found respect for Lisa. Not only had she capitvated my heart with her acting skills but also the hearts of everyone else in the audience that night. Three years down the line, I met Lisa at an ATM and asked her to contribute to our blog. Modestly, she agreed. So we had the following conversation:

*Note: Do not let her superstardom fool you, she is a fun and approachable person.*
