Hi! I’m Lora, that helpful mom and friend who’s here FOR YOU! Sharing my “Fancy Yet Frugal” hacks for your Home, Kitchen & Life with a bit of real life comedy…longest running life moment to date: packing lunches for 30 years and counting! Born and raised in Kansas, my Midwest roots keep me grounded in my adopted hometown of Los Angeles where I live with my husband, Scooter and kids (1 grown, 2 still at home) and of course, my little Gremlin dogs.

As an Emmy award winning TV journalist and former network news correspondent with decades of experience, I developed a love for sharing positive and useful information with others. I created LORAfied to help elevate your everyday with tips and tricks anyone can do! Here you’ll learn something helpful, practical, and sometimes a little whimsical to help you through your day. I’m thrilled you’re here!
