Bio
Mark Hamrick
When I think of the best professional communicators in the industry, Lori is the rare person exemplifying the best of the best. As a former journalist herself, she understands the needs of journalists. She is highly dependable, creative and pleasant. I've had the good fortune to work with Lori in my role as a journalist working a story, and also with her on a number of potentially challenging volunteer projects in my capacity as National Press Club president. In each and every case, there was a positive outcome. She is highly detail-oriented, but never comes across as anything but constructive. From a wider perspective, she also works tirelessly to engage both journalists and professional communicators in industry gatherings and discussions. I feel very fortunate to know Lori Russo.

While I detest the way LinkedIn makes me recommend people, I can honestly say that I'd recommend Lori for any task needed. Her skills, speed, and quality of work are matched by very few people on this planet. She's spectacular.
