Lisa Kelly is a businesswoman by day and a film producer by night. Her creative experience includes writing, editing, acting, stand-up comedy and film production. With a Harvard MBA, Lisa uses her hiring, firing and deal-making skills to compliment the artistic visions of the directors she works with. Lisa has produced several short films, including Goodbye Casey Trade which won Best Short at the Boston Independent Film Festival and Sahasi Chori (Brave Girl), which screened at 28 film festivals including SXSW and Palm Springs. She is currently in post-production on What If, Right Now, a short film based on Victory Lap, the first short story in the New York Times best-selling collection by George Saunders. Her philosophy on being a film producer: partner with writer/directors who tell real stories in a unique way and provide support to execute on the vision.

In order to torment the people in her life who have neglected her, teen oddball Casey Trade enlists an outcast’s help to fake her own suicide. She soon finds out that the devoted attention of her cohort presents a new set of problems.
