A former 2nd & 3rd grade teacher, Lori joined SCBWI in 2016. She had been writing stories since she was eight years old but decided it was time to get serious about publishing her work. Lori was a mentee for WriteMentor in 2019 and a Las Musas Hermana in 2020. With the help she’s received, she is ready to dive into the querying trenches again and pay it forward. A life-long learner, she enjoys writing webinars, podcasts and of course, reading. She lives in Austin, TX with her husband and their three children.
