About Dori

Do ri has taken her years of marketing and sales background to develop her company S1™ Safety First, LLC. After Columbine she wanted to find a way to keep schools safe and designed and developed a line of clear bags and backpacks in response to schools starting to require students carry clear bags or no bags. The S1 line expanded as security became an issue in offices, airports, sports arenas and other public venues. She has worked extensively with people with disabilities and was also an interpreter for the hearing impaired. This side of her background is why she introduced wheelchair backpacks to S1 – so children and adults with mobility issues would not have to wait until our product line developed further.

As Vice President of two different marketing companies before S1, she concentrated on finding artists with disabilities freelance work to supplement their incomes while developing their graphic skills. All in all, her commitment to making a difference has led to the launch of S1™ and its product line.

Giving back has always been a driving force in Dori’s life and sharing others is a big part of that give back. Her Blog Talk Radio Show, Word of Mom has been a great forum for sharing MOMpreneurs with each other and the natural step to becoming a MomTV host as well. Empowering MOMpreneurs is a passion for Dori and she is sharing the lessons she has learned with business owners as a coach, mentor and strategic partner, working one on one with women looking for start and build their businesses. Last but not least, Dori is the proud mom of three children – Dan, Rob, and Courtney – young adults really – time does fly so seize the moment!
