Lori Greiner: From Loyola Rambler to QVC Queen
Ever found yourself in a college lecture, daydreaming about inventing something amazing, becoming a millionaire, and then, you know, world domination? Well, Lori Greiner, a Loyola University Chicago grad from the class of '82, did just that. But let's rewind a bit.
Picture this: It's the early 80s, Chicago. Lori's a Rambler, not the car, the Loyola kind. She's majoring in Communications, and she's got big dreams. Now, imagine her as the girl in your dorm who always had the best snacks, the coolest posters, and the most epic ideas for dorm parties. That's Lori.
From Forgotten Forgings to Forging a Fortune
So, there's Lori, post-graduation, working in retail. She's got a knack for it, but she's not exactly living the dream. Then, one day, she stumbles upon a forgotten box of earring organizers in the back of a store. She sees potential, grabs a pair of scissors, and voilà! The Jewellery Organizer is born. She patents it, starts selling it, and boom! Lori's on her way to becoming the Queen of QVC.

From Loyola to the Hall of Fame
Fast forward to today. Lori's a Shark on Shark Tank, she's got a net worth of over $100 million, and she's been inducted into the Entrepreneur Hall of Fame. Not bad for a girl who started with a pair of scissors and a forgotten box of earrings.
