Her life’s mission is to create Social and Economic Equity through Real Estate Acquisition for ALL. Lori has a Degree in Environmental Design with a concentration in Architecture and Urban Planning.

Her extensive training and work experience in housing, development, and sales created an early understanding of the many facets of Residential and Commercial Real Estate. She is eager to help women over the age of 18 own Real Estate to gain financial stability and long term wealth and power. Lori is a self proclaimed Real Estate Activist and has been involved in public and private collaborations of Real Estate Acquisitions and Community Development which serves as the core foundation of her background. Lori's professional training in real estate, neighborhood revitalization/development, leadership, and sales has created an understanding of the multiple facets of the industry.
