Candidate: Lisa Martin

I have worked for the right to represent you. I have team skills and knowledge to lead in this critical time.

For a few years, I intensely studied how NSB operates.

• I attend a wide variety of city meetings… From CRA to Zoning.
• Graduated from NSB Citizens’ Academy
• Served on Code Enforcement Board…
• Met many of the city staff. Learned how the city operates.

Being retired gave me the time to learn city issues. Now I want the opportunity to resolve them.

Before focusing on New Smyrna, I had a successful 30-year career in a highly-competitive field.

I sold custom-designed equipment and network systems. My clients included multi-national governments and corporations. This involved negotiating multi-million-dollar contracts with often conflicting goals.

My career revolved around client revenue and critical networks. Fail-safe systems. Working within complex budgets. Profit and revenue.

I reconciled teams.

Mega-networks and custom products require large teams of engineers and marketers. I defined requirements and worked closely with those teams. I was the link between client and manufacturer, between engineering and marketing. Through my work with multiple teams, we went from conception to installation.

The highlight of my career was a deal between Motorola and NEC- 2 of the world’s biggest corporations at that time. We always meant to do a contract but never got around to it. Almost a decade of multi-million orders… functionally accomplished on my handshake. Now that’s trust!

Team leadership, big budget knowledge, understanding NSB city government complexity, for years I’ve been training to be mayor.
