Lisa Hundt has a masters in enviromental law and now works as a biodiversity officer for the Bat Conservation Trust. She was born in Israel and as she got older split her time between Leamington Spa and Israel and spent a lot of time outdoors making friends because she was always the new person. Her views on Israel are fairly liberal, she would like there to be peace and for people to be treated equally which she believes stems from her background since her parents have mixed heritage. She wants to engage with the people who are watching her on the plinth whilst also getting a message across. On the plinth she will be throwing paper bats down from the plinth and encouraging people to write their name on it and then attach it to a balloon and releasing the balloon. She wants to go on the plinth to feel empowered, create memories and be part of something bigger than herself. She describes herself as wide eyed and positive.
