After serving 12 years in the military, Lori retired in June 2024 and embarked on a new journey that combines her lifelong love of fashion with her desire to create a legacy for her family.<br><br>Her path to entrepreneurship began with a simple question from her spouse: \u201cWhat would you love to do for the rest of your life that doesn\u2019t feel like work?\u201d The answer was clear. Lori had always been captivated by the world of fashion, starting as a model at 18 and later experimenting with design by sewing her wedding attire. That spark led her to dive headfirst into creating her own brand<em>,<\/em><strong><em>\u00a0Marlow Royale<\/em><\/strong>, blending her unique experiences and creative vision into every piece she designs.<br><br>**A Veteran\u2019s Inspiring Transition**<br>As a proud veteran, Lori faced the challenge of reinventing herself in a new career.

They\u2019ve introduced me to initiatives that helped me gain exposure and build my business.\u201d<br><br>Through the WBC, Lori found the support, mentorship, and resources she needed to navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship. Her brand, Marlow Royale, is now set to be featured in the upcoming NEW-WBC Digital Fashion Magazine, showcasing her exceptional designs and marking a significant milestone in her journey.<br><br>**A Message to Aspiring Entrepreneurs**<br>Lori\u2019s testimonial speaks to the transformative power of community and education:<em>\u201cI highly recommend the Women\u2019s Business Center!
