Born in Caracas into a family of expatriates with roots tracing back to war orphans from Spain and Portugal, Ms. Lorenzo-Lopez's heritage is characterized by resilience and community-building. Her parents, Concepción López Cendón and Fernando Lorenzo De La Torre, managed the family's nautical business, Vetolan, which was established by her grandfather, Fernando Lorenzo Rey. The company became a respected name in the Caribbean. Her great-grandfather, Manuel Cendón Penas, was a Freemason and president of the Centro Benéfico Unión Española in Gary, Indiana. He was a proactive advocate for human rights, and his legacy continues to influence her family's values. Her grandfather, Jesús López Varela, who lived to 101, was a founder of Lar Gallego, the Hermandad Gallega, and the Agrupación Galaica—institutions that became a cultural and mutual-aid cornerstone for the Galician diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean—and his legacy was recognized in a public tribute issued by the Board of Directors of the Hermandad Gallega de Venezuela in 2025.

Looking ahead, Ms. Lorenzo-Lopez is dedicated to growing WoAgara into a platform that empowers entrepreneurial individuals worldwide through an employee-owned model that values collaboration across different areas of expertise.
