My name is LoriLee and I'm the owner, journalist/reporter/promoter for What's going on in the Lehigh Valley.  I'm also a mom of four that I adore.

​

In 2011,  I started WGOLV as a hobby for my friends and it grew from there.  Now with over 67k on Facebook and increasing daily, it's grown into a very popular publication.  It reaches anywhere from 1-2 million monthly on facebook alone.

 

About me:

I love the outdoors, my family and my fur baby, Ginger.  I enjoy weight training, nature, wildlife, music, nature, photography, dancing, fairs and taking my kids to the beach. On the side I am a personal trainer and  promotional model.  I also have been in numerous films and commercials. 

 

I've been very involved with the music community for years as a promoter (booked bands at various venues) and love music.  I have been classically trained as a vocalist and started playing piano at 7 . I attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania and have my degree is in Elementary Education.

 

As part of student teaching in college, I  had the opportunity to live and teach on the Hopi  reservation in Keams Canyon, Arizona.  It will always be one of my fondest memories.  I spent my weekends in an adobe home high on top of a mesa in the village of Walpi and attended ceremonies in an underground kiva. 

 

Before WGOLV, I started my own organic baby boutique and sold products all over the world for 10 years while raising my little ones.  I also had a small shop in Dorneyville where I taught classes.  I created my own organic product line and had things manufactured in various parts of the country.  The moses baskets were made out of natural/organic wood which I sourced from a renewable forest and had shipped via flat bed to the Amish where they soaked it and wove it into beautiful baskets.

​

I've always loved helping others, volunteering whenever possible, helping with benefit events and of course being a mom - that's been the biggest blessing in my life.  My youngest is a football player and I love watching football and attending the games.   

​

As WGOLV has grown, I've been working on developing a team.  I have a few interns and always looking to add more.  I'm also looking for additional writers, photographers, videographers and those who enjoy public relations and marketing/sales.

Thank you for being part of something that means so much to me.  I appreciate all my followers all these years.

God Bless you,
