Lori has been with GSP Financial for two years, currently in the position of chief of staff. She acquired many necessary skills during her six years of service in the U.S. Navy, where she served in a variety of capacities including at sea, in the shipyards, and at shore installations. While serving aboard a naval vessel, she often managed and coordinated operations between military organizations and defense contractors. She was an operations manager at a naval medical hospital, demonstrating the versatility and adaptability required to shift between organizational environments. Lori has enjoyed her transition to civilian life, finding many similarities between the camaraderie among shipmates and the more close-knit relationships of the startup community. Originally from Kentucky, she has lived all over. She has a strong passion for animal rescue and helping other veterans, and when she’s not at work she enjoys spending time with her husband and pets.
