Lori Neal, Owner and CEO of ABC Cutting, has built her career on hard work, determination, and a genuine passion for helping others. Her leadership journey began early—serving as Student Body President in high school—and continued as she took on her first management role at just 17 years old. After attending Roane State Community College, Lori quickly discovered her talent for business and went on to build a diverse portfolio of successful companies in Tennessee, ranging from marketing and financial services to insurance, construction, and property management.

In 2018, Lori relocated to Pompano Beach, Florida, bringing her entrepreneurial spirit and strong operational background with her. She joined ABC Concrete Cutting in 2020 as Director of Operations and, in 2025, achieved one of her long-term goals by purchasing the company and rebranding it as Lori Neal & Associates, LLC dba ABC Cutting. She continues to expand her professional credentials and is actively pursuing her Florida Contractor’s License as part of her vision for the company’s future growth.

Beyond her business achievements, Lori is committed to giving back. She has served in community leadership roles, including as the 50th President of the Crossville Jaycees, and is the founder of Kids Christmas Inc., which provides clothing and toys to children in need.

Lori’s story reflects a lifetime of steady growth, hands-on leadership, and a deep belief in building businesses—and communities—that make a difference.
