Born in Paradise, California, Brissette first appeared in the 1983 film Heart Like a Wheel opposite Bonnie Bedelia and Beau Bridges. She then had a guest role on Webster before landing the role of V.I.C.I. the Robot in the syndicated series Small Wonder in 1985. After the series was canceled in 1989, Brissette continued acting, appearing in Parker Lewis Can't Lose as well as an unsold television pilot entitled Beanpole. In 1990, she voiced Wrenifred Brown the bird in the two-dimensional computer-animated video Why Christmas Trees Aren't Perfect, which is based on the book of the same name and stars the voice talents of Jodi Benson, Tony Melendez, and Ray Benson.[1] Her last professional acting role was in 1991 in Christopher Knopf's television series Equal Justice.

In 2007, Brissette was working as a registered nurse for Boulder Community Hospital in Boulder, Colorado.[2]
