In her tenure with John Woo, she co-founded Tiger Hill Entertainment, overseeing all development and production of video game properties and comic book properties for the company, including Midway’s Stranglehold, Virgin Comics John Woo’s 7 Brothers, and Chilingo’s Bloodstroke.
For the past several years, Lori has been invited to hear pitches at Fade In’s Hollywood Pitch Festival and in 2019 was proud to be a judge for Project Twenty1’s film contest. She is also the Executive Producer of Kybele Dance Theater, helping manage the company and produce live performances for the award-winning choreographer Seda Aybay.
"I've had a really wonderful experience with my mentor, Lori. She's very knowledgeable and supportive and I really appreciate her willingness to read my scripts and give me thoughtful notes that push me to create better work. She takes her role as my mentor very seriously and is very generous with her time. I've enjoyed hearing more about her experience as a producer as well. As a filmmaker, this kind of connection and insight is extremely valuable."
