About Us / People

Lori Randall / Principal

Lambrusco could have been one of her first words!  Lori Randall’s father, a wine wholesaler in the Midwest since 1960, taught Lori to use chopsticks, eat Escargot and enjoy espresso by the time she was in grade school.  Her love of foreign foods and the history of viticulture is embedded in her and plays an integral role in the path she has chosen.

With a degree in business, Lori worked in the hospitality industry before she began her own restaurant consulting business in Seattle.  Recognizing Washington wine industry’s growth she decided to immerse herself in that world and joined a prominent Seattle distributor.

Leveraging her 10+ years of wine and restaurant success she combined her interests, talents, knowledge and rolodex and moved into public relations at Wilson PR as an account executive.  Lori created Randall Public Relations in 2001 to focus on her passions—the wine, restaurant and hospitality industries.

She sits on the Hutch Holiday Gala Board of Trustees, and committees for both PONCHO and Auction of Washington Wines and is a Celebrity Waiter for the Leukemia Society.

In 2008 Randall PR was selected to serve as the PR firm for Washington Restaurant Association's Consulting Network.
