Hi, I'm Lora
Who you work with matters. You need to know two things: this person knows what they're doing, and I'm actually comfortable with them.
If that's what you're looking for, you're in the right place. Take a look around and reach out when you're ready.
My Professional Experience
My career started at the Disney Institute, where I trained as a facilitator and learned early what great looks like: how to keep an audience's attention, ask the right questions, create spaces for genuine engagement, and make sure content actually lands.
Since then I've spent 18+ years leading workshops, coaching leaders, and consulting with organizations across industries from intimate executive sessions to large-scale keynotes. I'm also a facilitator and consultant with JB Training Solutions, where I've spent the past decade specializing in employee engagement and developing some of their most popular programs.
I've been trusted by some incredible organizations including Subaru, Eli Lilly, Publicis Groupe, Marriott, Microsoft, Major League Baseball Network, Spectrum Reach, the Chicago Bears, Abbott Nutrition, Discover Financial Services, Condé Nast, and Harvard, among others.
Whether I'm traveling the globe delivering workshops or working one-on-one with clients through my own practice, my purpose is simple: helping people love their jobs. When you're engaged and inspired at work, it creates a ripple effect in all parts of your life.

Now that we’ve covered the professional side,
let me show you the person behind the work
Hey, I'm Lora
Communication | Developer | Empathy | Positivity | Woo
If there’s one thing I hope my friends would say about me, it’s that I’m authentic and let people be themselves. I’m happiest in temperate climates and near water, so my husband and I split our time between Milwaukee, WI (because there’s nothing like a Midwest summer) and Key West in the winter. We’re major foodies who love supporting local restaurants and have even planned vacations—both domestic and international—around food. I see free time as an opportunity to explore, always seeking out the best festivals, events, and activities wherever we are. I’m a passionate plant mom (indoors and on our patios), bike rider, reader, and beach lover. No show makes me laugh harder than Arrested Development, and I’m often journaling, making bucket lists, or doing a deep introspective dive to stay happy and aligned with my goals. I strive to make the most out of ever day, practicing gratitude along the way.
