Lori Allred’s Summary

I really love telling stories (whether it be through producing, writing or directing).

After visiting 48 states and 12 countries, I've realized it comes down to people. Each person has a story, an opinion, and a dream. Whether we are working on a corporate video or a television program, I want to hear what people have to say. My goal is to ask the best questions, get the best answers, but most importantly, be the best listener.
