It's impossible to pin Lori O’Connell down to a single title. Her interests and inclinations have taken her across the map, both figuratively and literally. She has, however, settled into a few roles that combine her natural talents and trained skills. In our discussion Lori shared her transformative experiences in fencing, jiu-jitsu, living in Japan, mountain climbing and hiking, doing stunt work for film and television, building her home, and more.
