About Our DIRECTORS
Portia by Lori
Portia’s presence is the sort of presence only a few people you’ll meet in your lifetime have. The kind of presence that makes you stop in your tracks and pay attention. Once she’s honed you in, what she has to say is usually to the point, wise, quick witted & always unapologetic. She started her own PR Agency at 25…and if you ask, she still is 25 to you and everyone else, and will be for the foreseeable future. But unlike her age that will forever standstill, her drive and success never will.
She is not only a PR to our clients; she is a friend – and this has become the strongest pillar within our company culture. I can promise she will be in the ‘Favorites’ section in your contact book, I can’t promise that she won’t send you GIFS as a form of communication.
Her resilience against every storm thrown her mist is the reason why I choose to have her as my partner in this game - and so should you. Portia is the life jacket in any crisis, she has the words in every situation, and she is the powerhouse you want by your side when building your brand
Lori by Portia
Lori seamlessly flies through major work hurdles like most people run up escalators, the difference being that her escalator never ends, and she doesn’t stop for breath, combine that with her skill set to not be unhinged by anything or anyone and you basically have a bionic business partner.
A brainstorm with Lori is like your first coffee of the day, necessary and the best, our creative ideas start at a level 4, Lori catapults it to a 14 and then you manage to wind it into a budget pleasing 10. She doesn’t waste her breath, literally, if she doesn’t have anything to say Lori won’t say anything, this is an amendable skill in a world of people pleasers. Team and client empathy are in her very core, she’s incapable of sleeping with one eye open so will always do the right thing even if it doesn’t serve her. Those eyes light up when a client drops something new, whether it’s a runway collection in one of our showrooms or an electric horse drawn carriage in the city of London … yes we do it all.
Our first meeting was certainly not one full of sparks, she had multiple job offers on the table so appeared unfazed and had options. I forgot she was swinging by the office and had no idea why she was standing in front of me so tried to play it just as cool. Thankfully we made it work and it was the best meeting of two minds. Even after all these years I have no idea if she does yoga, nor do I care or should you as we are here to build you a better business - there is so much to life than holding a pose, such as a cracking cheese board with paired wines which she can do, just don’t ask her to parallel park.
