Ali Starr
Ali is the founder of Tashi Deley, a movement built around a powerful message: “I see you, and I honor the greatness within you.” That greatness, Ali believes, comes from the One who created you—fearfully, wonderfully, and purposefully.
Before God called her to create Tashi Deley TA-SHE DELAY, Ali served in several different roles: Catholic elementary school principal, VP of Culture at Verve a credit union, she worked with the NBA and NCAA and currently coaches the Lourdes Academy Girl Basketball team.
At home, she’s a proud wife to her husband Jeff and proud mom to four amazing kids - PJ, Vinny and her two bonus daughters - Ava, and Lilly. She’ll tell you she’s a mediocre cook and golfer, but pretty darn good at dance parties in the kitchen and trusting Jesus through the mountain tops and in the valleys.

Lisa loves God with her whole heart and soul! She also loves children and wants to help them build confidence, self-worth, and faith through God’s perspective. She has been in Ministry for 18 years and has been a Speaker at Lifest! Helping people encounter God in a personal way is her heart!
