I’m Lori “LORE” Boozer! I’ve dedicated my career to making broken institutions more humane.

For the past 17 years I’ve led social impact work across law, government, philanthropy, and political campaigns, most recently as Managing Director at the Robin Hood Foundation (NYC). Passionate about strategy and transformation, in this next chapter, I'm centering narrative, connection, and dignity as the foundation for human capacity and change.

“Most people think in lines. I think in webs.”

As a visionary whose work lives where the self meets the system — I understand that who we are shapes the systems we design.

After more than a decade of service in high-performing institutions, I decided to gift myself a sabbatical as an opportunity to rest, reflect on all my experience, lived and professional, and add a global lens to my work. I spent a year moving through Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, observing traditions of community, embodiment, ritual, and healing. Through this, I restored my capacity—reconnecting to the full range of my energy, skills, and talents. I learned across cultures how people prioritize their humanity and thrive despite the challenges they face. Revitalized by what I learned and inspired by my own transformation, I began developing frameworks to help others do the same.

As a leader, I focus on the inherent worth of people, culture as the container for our values, and environments that elevate human capacity.
