About the Founder
Lisa Martin-Bomnskie
Deep roots. Wide perspective.
Lisa Martin-Bomnskie brings nearly two decades of agency experience to the work of helping brands find their voice, build their reputation and move forward with purpose. Her career spans consumer brands, global corporations and community-defining institutions with experience ranging from hospitality, consumer packaged goods and destination marketing to financial services, biotechnology and enterprise tech.
Before founding FORTH, Lisa built and led public relations and social media teams at integrated agencies in San Antonio, Houston and the Pacific Northwest. Her work has included Marriott International, Shell and Pennzoil’s Grand Prix of Houston, Travel Portland, The Standard, Tektronix, The Oregon Coast Aquarium and North Coast Brewing Company, alongside organizations deeply connected to her hometown, including Pearl, The DoSeum and the Briscoe Western Art Museum. Across those engagements, she has brought strategic counsel, creative thinking and hands-on leadership to brands with very different audiences, challenges and ambitions.
Lisa began her agency career at Creative Civilization in San Antonio, working on award-winning campaigns for arts organizations, health care providers, financial services companies and civic institutions. She went on to lead public relations at Houston’s Love Advertising and Portland’s Grady Britton, expanding her experience across consumer and business-to-business brands while mentoring teams and connecting communications to broader marketing strategy.
A San Antonio native, Lisa returned home with a broader perspective and a clear ambition: to build an agency where experienced people do meaningful work for organizations moving their businesses and communities forward. FORTH brings that ambition to life, pairing senior-level strategy with the collaborative spirit of a partner invested in what comes next.
Her commitment to developing talent extends beyond agency leadership. Lisa previously served as a lecturer at Our Lady of the Lake University, bringing her professional experience into the classroom. She earned her undergraduate degree in public relations from Texas State University’s School of Journalism & Mass Communication, a master’s degree in business from the University of the Incarnate Word, and a Master of Education from Texas A&M University–College Station, where she studied cognition and creativity. Together, her education and experience connect business, communications and an understanding of how highly creative people think and generate ideas.
