Lori Lish

Hi, I'm Lori Lish. I am an energetic, life-loving person currently looking for a program management position.


LORI LISH  What do you get when you mix a liter German engineering, a cup of meticulousness, ten pounds of tenacity, and a couple hundred grams of cheerful enthusiasm? Jawohl, you get me! -or maybe a Mercedes Benz. I am an energetic people person who can understand both engineer speak and management processes, a strange dichotomy known as an Engineer Extrovert! My friend said it best when she told me “it is rare to find someone who is kind, generous and has an outgoing personality in one who is also detail oriented.”  As it turns out, these characteristics happen to be advantageous for a project manager to have. I came about this discovery after several years of working as an accountant. I was asked to work on some interesting projects and I found my true passion. I was able to unite that passion with another when I spearheaded the creation of the Austin Outlaws, women’s full contact football team and the IWFL, Independent Women’s Football league. I loved playing for the Outlaws and am still involved with them today. After a few years I decided to go back to school. This cleared the path for me to really progress in the field and carve out a lifelong career in project management. I asked the people closest to me to describing how they see me and have included some of their quotes below. “Lori is endlessly energetic and enthusiastic about her pursuits in life. Above all, she is positive and proactive, even in the face of adversity. “ “Lori is tenacious when it comes to accomplishing what she has set out to do– whether that is professional, recreational or educational.” “Lori is very empathetic. Coupled with her emotional intelligence this makes her very successful in working with people from a variety of backgrounds and management” “Lori has always been honest and has a high moral character.” “Lori is self-motivated and very dependable. She can be counted on to complete tasks in a timely manner.” “Lori has a great sense of humor; it is just plain fun to be around her.” And a former co-worker said, "Lori is an incredible team player and advocate for implementing change for the best customer results.  Lori has a keen sense for providing solutions for the better business outcomes - often overwhelmingly challenging to do in a large multinational multicultural company. She has an amazing attention for detail, deadlines and teamwork.  I would love the opportunity to work with her again!”
