\nThe arts have always been a part of Lori (Walsh) McCloud's childhood. Her family is a very creative group of individuals ranging from musicians to film and television to theater to fine arts. At a young age, Lori's parents saw her passion for the arts and enrolled her in private art lessons with a focus on painting and drawing.

During this time, she opened her first business, L.W. Designs<\/em>, a graphic design company creating print work, logo design, and illustration. Upon leaving the area, she then began a career in Christian education. She held administrative positions at two Christian schools in marketing and development and as a personal assistant to the Headmaster.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, she has been heavily involved in her local churches serving as Children's programs coordinators, teaching Sunday Children's Church services for over 25 years, producing and directing children's musicals and theater, serving on the adult and children's worship and outreach teams and using her art skills to enhance church curriculum and media.<\/span><\/p>\n
