Avoid Costly Missteps in Your Projects
Navigating renovations without expert guidance can lead to unexpected delays, inflated budgets, and overwhelming stress.
Don't let your vision get lost in the complexities.
Feeling buried by the sheer complexity of managing a project
Surprise costs that quietly blow your budget before you see them coming
Inflated GC fees and change order markups that nobody warned you about
Too many moving parts, too many people, and no one clearly in charge — “who’s the quarterback?”
Paperwork gaps and missing documentation that come back to bite you
Contractors who go dark the moment you need an answer
Deadlines that keep moving — always further away, never closer
The slow burn of stress that shouldn't be part of building something beautiful
Build with Confidence
Construction and renovation are complicated enough without feeling like you're flying blind.
I'm here to change that.
You'll always know what's happening — no more chasing people down for updates
Your budget gets watched like a hawk, not discovered as a surprise at the end
Contractors stay accountable, timelines stay honest, and the jargon gets translated in real time
Architects, engineers, and trades stay aligned — so nothing falls through the cracks between the people building your project
You make confident decisions because you actually understand your options
You have a real person in your corner — someone who picks up the phone, tells you the truth, and genuinely cares how this turns out
Clear positioning, high trust.
From design and contractor vetting to final walkthrough, Shore & Stone manages your project with complete transparency — and complete loyalty to you.

Let me Help you.
Throw your ideas at me. How much or how little do you want to be involved? Do you need only a couple of contractors, or is there a need for a GC? Do you need an engineer for that? Do you need help navigating through permitting? How do you harden your home to get ahead of the Zone 0 Defensible Space requirements in California? What kind of tile and finishes are you thinking for that bathroom remodel? Where do we start?! Let’s get you organized and find the right people together. Project manager at your service.
Hello, there! I’m Lorraine.
There's a throughline in everything I've done: I show up, I follow through, and I don't stop communicating until the job is done.
With over a decade embedded in the world of major general contractors and developers, managing commercial projects, to small multifamily projects, I learned this industry from the inside out — speaking the language of architects, engineers, and trades, and becoming the person everyone called when a project needed to get back on track. (Years of managing bands as a musician didn't hurt either — turns out contractors and bandmates require the same mix of diplomacy and iron will.)
I'm a proud taskmaster, but a warm one. I believe great project management lives and dies on communication, transparency, and genuine partnership.
Beyond the build, I care deeply about the environment, the socioeconomic ripple effects of how and where we build, and empowering women — especially young women — to take up space in industries that haven't always made room for them. (The trades and AEC industries are AWESOME!)
Shore & Stone is the sum of all of it: the experience, the grit, and the heart.
Welcome. I'm glad you're here.
Tell me all about it…
The plans, the vision, the Pinterest boards you've been curating since 2019 — I want to hear all of it.
Whether you're looking for a trusted guide and advocate, a translator of contractor-speak, or someone to bring real clarity to your budget, scope, and timeline, I've got you.
Need a catalyst to finally get the ball rolling? That is my favorite part.
Keeping projects on track, removing roadblocks, and turning "someday" into a thing that actually gets built — this is my wheelhouse.
Let's talk.
