Born in a small town near Manchester, England, Lora grew up with a passion for performing. As she excelled in her dance ability she was accepted into the Birmingham Royal Ballet Junior Associate programme at age 11, and for the next few years continued to focus on her dance training. However, Lora alway's felt like there was something missing, and knew that she wanted to explore acting. At age 20 she graduated from a full scholarship placement at 'The Hammond School' - a performing arts school in Chester, England which is where she got her first real thirst for acting. Inspired by her 3rd year acting teacher, it was at this time that Lora knew she wanted to pursue acting as a career.

After working abroad as a professional dancer, Lora spent some time back home in the UK working on various short film and theate projects and taking one on one acting classes with her former college teacher. But she got itchy feet and decided the UK just wasn't for her. So now, here in Toronto she is looking to further pursue her acting career in Film and Television.
