Marisa was born and raised in Bloemfontein and received a BA Drama and Theatre Arts degree from the University of the Free State, before moving to Johannesburg to pursue her career.

Her first major starring role in television was playing the role of Ester, a dance instructor at Marthur Curry dance school who dreams about a life on stage, on the kykNET sitcom Hester & Ester Bester.

Marisa has acted in numerous theatre productions including The Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, Fiddler on the Roof and Deon Opperman's Ons vir Jou. She also appeared in the Broadway production of Thoroughly Modern Millie.

In 2016 she was one of the original directors on Getroud met Rugby: Die Sepie (Married to Rugby: The Soapie), a soap opera based on the feature film and later drama series Getroud met Rugby by Deon Opperman, which is set amongst a rugby-playing community.
