After graduating from Texas A&M in College Station, San Antonio native Lori Castillo set out on a career journey that was marked by resilience and adaptability. Initially, she had no plans to return home, taking a finance job at JPMorgan Chase. Over the next eight years, new roles within the company led her to Houston, Dallas, and Chicago. Her finance career took a slight detour when she took a job in marketing at Proctor & Gamble after earning her MBA from Ohio State. This detour, however, led her to a job at COVERGIRL Cosmetics, marketing the brand globally. When her husband was offered a job back in San Antonio, she told herself the move was “temporary.” Fast forward ten years later, she’s Vice President of Global Marketing at NatureSweet, an agricultural company headquartered in her hometown. Lori oversees promotion of the company’s produce portfolio and has a deep-rooted connection to Texas. She’s actively involved in her community, Chairs the Board for Texas Public Radio, sits on the Boards for Texas A&M University- San Antonio Foundation and San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, was in LSA’42 and ’45, and is a member of The Texas Lyceum.
