She is a fearless, strong, and passionate advocate. From as young as she can remember, she has desired to serve the public, advocate on behalf of others, and give back to those in need. Her first career choice was to become a United States Supreme Court Judge, embodying all of her passions. Since then, her career goals have evolved slightly, leading her to where she is today. These passions led her to secure a degree in psychology with a minor in political science from the University of South Florida.  She is an entrepreneur, realtor, and Hillsborough County substitute teacher. She is also a devoted volunteer and holds these efforts very near and dear to her heart. She is active as a Guardian Ad Litem Foster Care Child Advocate, Democratic Black Caucus Member, Board of County Commissioners Code Enforcement Board Member, and volunteer feeding those in need. Lorissa is committed to serving the community and seeks to push Florida in the “Wright” direction.
