Experience

Lori has 15+ years of professional experience in marketing, strategy, writing, and editing in metro Detroit. She's been an animal lover since she could toddle and a pet parent since she could scoop a litter box. (Those days are done, thanks to Litter-Robot.) She has also fostered several sets of kittens; her youngest cat is a foster fail.
