HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE
CAREER OF AMERICA'S MONEYMAKER

Loral builds her first business, a health-training company.
1984 At age 19 and paying her own way through college, Loral creates

while earning a double degree and playing hoops on the college team.
1985 Loral graduates from the University of Nebraska at Omaha with a
master's degree in exercise physiology. Chevron calls and asks if she can teach
health, fitness, and nutrition to workers on oil rig off New Orleans. She is
24, single, and takes the job. Flying back to shore in a helicopter after
finishing her stint, Chevron offers her a multimillion-dollar contract to build
272 fitness centers on the offshore rigs. With no idea how to get it done; she
says yes. She decides to "strengthen her strengths and hire her weaknesses,"

"Loral is the
kind of person who sees what potential lives inside of you and your business
and then leads you to draw that out yourself. I feel very fortunate to count
her as one of my mentors, and absolutely believe that I would not be making the
personal and business progress that I am without her guidance."
