Lisa Bellows completed her Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Biology from TWU in Denton.

She currently serves as Science Department Chair at North Central Texas College and teaches General Biology, Zoology, Botany, and Environmental Science. Lisa is also engaged in a special project of cataloging natural specimens at the Thomsen Foundation in Forrestburg, Texas.


An avid Master Gardener, Lisa utilizes her skills through campus beautification projects at North Central Texas College. She currently serves as President of the Gainesville Independent School Board and is very active in her church community, serving as a lector and finance council member.

Lisa's passion for the outdoor environment is dependent on personal experiences and observations during her rural childhood. Her father was a rodeo stock producer packing her through the back roads of various rodeo arenas in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Colorado. Her mother is retired from Saint Jo Independent School District where she served long term as school librarian. This is obviously where Lisa's roots in nature and academics are derived.

More times than not, Lisa can be found outdoors on her hands and knees with science students scouring the NCTC campus for bugs, insects, wildflowers and various plants. She is widely known by various thankful neighbors for trapping and properly disposing of pesky animals such as skunks, coons, and snakes.
