Lisa Dalacey is one of the newer voices on the Anything Political team, focusing her reporting on issues of empowerment and equality within the broader political landscape. She works to keep her own stance out of her coverage, instead prioritizing clear, well-researched reporting that gives readers the context they need to reach their own conclusions about the events shaping government and public life. Lisa is especially drawn to stories where policy intersects with everyday people's lives, from child care funding fights to the kinds of local decisions that rarely make national headlines but change how families get by. She tries to write the kind of article she'd want to read herself after a long day: clear, honest, and free of unnecessary spin.
Outside of her writing, Lisa is a wife and mother who spends much of her free time with her family, whether that's tending a small backyard garden with her kids, working through a stack of board games on rainy weekends, or planning the next short family road trip. She's the designated baker for most family gatherings and takes a fair amount of pride in a pie crust that finally turned out right. Lisa brings that same grounded, everyday perspective to how she approaches the political stories she covers, often thinking about how a given policy would actually land in a household like her own before she starts writing.
