Lisa – New Zealand 

Winner of Survivor New Zealand, Lisa is a librarian from New Zealand who defied the odds in her season in 1028. 

A Survivor superfan, Lisa is not one to overlook as she knows the game inside out and isn’t afraid to play hard. 

She jokes, “I played New Zealand Survivor in Thailand and I’m the once and reigning champion but that’s because it got cancelled after my year. 

“In my season, a lot of the people were playing Candyland and I was playing Checkers. Now a lot of people are going to be playing Chess and I’ve got to see if I can up my game.” 

A mum and librarian, Lisa is thrilled to be on the World team and play with some of her heroes saying, “My all-time favourite player is Cirie. It’s always been Cirie. I would either die from the fan-ness of it or she would beat me, and I would love it either way.” 

Lisa is a self-confessed ‘really good Survivor player’ and has watched every season of US Survivor since it began and playing the game with her idols is a dream come true.
