Lorri Zell received her accounting degree from Virginia Tech with a concentration in Accounting Information Systems (computer science). She grounded her knowledge by working as a CPA for a large audit firm until technology seduced her and she focused on building databases and networks. Lorri loves learning and has many hobbies which have piqued her curiosity so much that she turned them into credentials. She became a NASM-certified personal trainer, a Black Belt, a Fairfax County Master Gardener, and most recently an SHRM-SCP (Society of Human Resource Management Senior Certified Professional). Her background in finance, technology, and HR makes her ideally suited to lead the operations of our technology-forward, employee-empowered, client-centered business. Lorri lives, works & plays in Reston with her husband, Wayne, and their four dogs. She spends her free time talking with neighbors about community issues, taking long walks and reading audiobooks, or gardening. Whenever possible, she and Wayne love to visit with any of their four children.
