The Tampa Bay Chamber is pleased to recognize Dr. Lisa Shultis as our Ambassador of the Quarter for the 1st Quarter of 2024. Volunteering as a Chamber Ambassador for just over a year, Lisa brings her enthusiasm and positivity to everything she does – she has done more with the Chamber in her first year than many members do over several years. A true advocate for Tampa and its business community, Lisa promotes the Tampa Bay Chamber wherever she goes to the extent that she has introduced several people in our community to the Chamber. She is an outstanding volunteer Ambassador drawing on her professional experience to help new members navigate the opportunities available to other Chamber members.
Dr. Lisa Shultis was born and raised in Liverpool, New York. She attended SUNY Health Science Center at Syracuse where she earned a B.S. in Advanced Cardiorespiratory Sciences in 1987. Lisa and her family lived in England for 15 years and when they returned to the United States and Lisa re-entered clinical practice and higher education while also earning her Masters in Higher Education from Ashford University in 2014 and a Doctorate degree in Higher Education and Leadership in 2023. In 2022, Lisa relocated to St. Petersburg, Florida to begin her career with Utica University as the Executive Dean for Florida Campuses and the Director for Respiratory Care. Her new position and location allowed her to become more involved in community service, and business-to-business/business-to-community partnerships. One of the highlights of Lisa's move to the Sunshine State includes becoming an active member and Ambassador for the Tampa Bay Chamber.
