Lisa Ojeda Mattheis was born in Pasadena, Texas to Mexican American parents. She had always dreamed of being an actress, but somehow something else always took up her time. When in High School she was very much into sports, volleyball, basketball, softball, running track, and cross country. She worked part-time at a arcade in Houston, Texas, so she could play her favorite video games like Galaga, Stargate, and Centipede.

After High School she briefly attended college, however, it just wasn't for her. She asked her father if she can join the Army, and he said, "No." She worked at several oil, and gas companies in their Gas Measurement Departments as an Integrator Operator measuring the gas flow in Pipelines.

Once her children graduated, and her time freed up, she started thinking about pursuing her acting career. Then one day after a couple of months thinking about it, she finally reached out and signed up at Film Acting Academy in Houston, TX. (2018) Since starting her formal training, Lisa has acted in several commercials, films, TV Series (Fear The Walking Dead (2019-2022), (Panic 2021), (Love And Death 2022) in a number of different roles.
