Hear from others who know her (and her work ethic) best.
Enjoyed our working with Lauren at PBS socal on “to foster change”, from 2016-2018. I was deeply impressed by how she managed all digital & social for “to foster change” from website design, production, editorial, story curation and creation, she was always committed to excellence and timeliness. Did all the social sharing for the commercials I directed for on-air. They were really successful at increasing the awareness, mentoring, fostering and adoption rates of foster youth. She also helped with producing the actual commercials themselves giving really constructive feedback that had everything work seamlessly with all other content. We have been in touch ever since and I can’t wait to work with her again!

I was looking for a laser-focused career coach that would really take the time to listen to my story and pick apart who I am. Lauren is just that and more! I was recommended to her through someone I trust dearly, and by having her help me not only find my next position but also shift career paths, was a huge challenge. Lauren was 100% up for that big challenge and tackled it head on with ease. She is very great at asking the right questions to get you thinking about the right answers that will position yourself for your next career move. That in itself is worth the weight of gold. I also recommend her for resume writing or formal editing. She really can make sentences pack a punch with the WHY and HOW, and helps you get rid of the fluff employer’s don’t need to be reading. Anyone considering using Lauren's services, you won’t be disappointed (and you’ll thank both of us later).

Lauren is awesome to work with as a fellow creative team member at VV. As soon as she came on board to manage SailorApp content at the end of 2019, she rolled up her sleeves and showed enthusiasm for getting things done on day 1. Even though we didn’t regularly work on the same projects and she managed several other designer’s projects, we still crossed paths at our daily stand-ups every morning and I consistently saw her creative PM skills in action. Not many can be a jack of all trades creative and project manager in one, but she’s got it. I hope we continue to work together for years to come.

Lauren is a brilliant strategist and "ideator" for social media. Her copywriting skills can transform a seemingly dull piece of data into a great story. She is an endless fountain of ideas for big brand brainstorming. Lauren is the perfect blend of meticulous organization and an innovative talent in the social media sphere and as a copywriter. I loved representing Lauren to our client's and she always aimed to turn out great work. Also, she is a great communicator and not only works well on teams but independently too! I highly recommend Lauren to any company looking to hire a knock-out writer and social media extraordinaire.

Lauren worked with Adams Morgan Main Street Group (AMMG)in 2009-2010, primarily on the annual Adams Morgan Day Festival. This Festival involved 100 volunteers, media management, public relations, artist & vendor management. Lauren exuded professionalism at a young age and made a strong contribution to social media, general writing, and all PR and media projects. She worked well with the Executive Director as well as volunteers, suppliers, vendors and press. As President of AMMG 2004 - 2012, I'm pleased to recommend her.

Lauren was always thorough and enthusiastic with her work for me at B&H. Her work with my blog and marketing was crucial to the development of my business.

A PR-grad-turned-Copywriter, Lauren emulates enthusiasm and passion in everything she takes on; every endeavor, project, article and even event. She started working for me at Adams Morgan Main Street Group in March 2009, helping out with production of our biggest annual event, the Adams Morgan Festival. Her role was media relations outreach, and right away she started contacting vendors, contributing social media messaging and collaborating ideas. She helped to make the festival a great and memorable event and we enjoyed having her on board. Since 2009, she's been up to quite a lot over the past 3 years working in various marketing and advertising roles to pave her writing career. So, even though it's been years since working with her, it's always a pleasure re-connecting and catching up.

Lauren was in my PR Research Class two years ago. She demonstrated strong analytical skills combined with strategic thinking and creative implementation in strategic communication. Lauren's individual assignments were well written with lots of insights about various research methods we introduced in class. Her leadership in the final client project has motivated the whole team to move forward together efficiently and provide the client the high-quality product. During her senior year, Lauren was one of two winners of the Richmond PR Foundation scholarship, which was an exceptional recognition of her academic excellence and the strong potential to be a successful young PR professional. Lauren is highly-motivated and very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her.

Working with Lauren was an absolute joy, she was instrumental in achieving world-class service for our clients. She was always willing to go the extra mile for everyone. Even at her busiest, Lauren was always ready to assist those who needed it with a smile. Her constant diligence in making sure she was prepared for any scenario made those around her not only rely on her but also work harder themselves. When she would get pulled in multiple directions on our most hectic days, she would handle them all to the letter. I consider myself very lucky to have had the privilege to work alongside her and grow as a result. Lauren is an amazing college to have and a fast friend too.

Lauren is not just another person in the workplace but a full-on team captain that will make the team succeed in any way.
Sometimes life brings you people you know you’re supposed to collaborate with and Lauren was definitely that for myself and our team. Having her step in as the lead strategist for the Voices ERG Summit was pivotal to its success, as she was able to quickly become the missing link between teams. She leads with such grace, creating spaces where all voices are not only heard but amplified. Through her content strategy sessions, we were able to all align on a theme and message that amplified where we’d been and celebrated where we were going. I can’t say enough good things about Lauren and anyone who is lucky enough to work with her can agreed that’s she’s an asset to any team. Her skills range from various forms of strategy to integrated production and execution, so do yourself a favor and bring her in! Trust me, you won’t regret it.
Lauren is a true pleasure to work with. She has proven herself to be accountable, trustworthy, and reliable. She plans ahead, asks good questions, thoroughly prepares, follows up and follows through. She’s self driven but works to mutually benefit the larger team. In my experience with Lauren, she identified a workflow inefficiency most wouldn’t have recognized, found a solution, tested it thoroughly, demo’ed and gained user acceptance, set up the new process, trained all team members, and rolled it out ahead of deadline. An asset to any team!

Lauren is the ideal combo of creative person and project manager you want on your creative team and just all around easy going and sweet person to work with. As soon as we started working together on sailor app content, she rolled up her sleeves and showed enthusiasm for getting things done day one. It takes a lot of skill, tenacity and learning to dive into a new industry and role and new city, but I’ve seen her positivity, enthusiasm and work ethic shine through on joint projects and campaigns. She’s the opposite of high-strung micromanager you think of when you think PM, she’s exactly the opposite - easy going and down to earth — and what any creative team needs to succeed. I welcome the chance to continue working with her in the future.

Lauren was motivating, passionate and always ready to inspire her team to work more efficiently and create better ways to accomplish our goals. Lauren always found a solution and her positive attitude and ability to multi-task was contagious! She can move mountains so look out!
Lauren is a force to be wreckoned with! We collaborated on a project to implement a residual database into a workflow that is cross-departmental. Her innovation and forward thinking are unparalleled to anyone I've worked with. Her relentless creativity and innovation to think outside the box has certainly inspired myself and the people around her on this project to go far outside their own comfort zones to succeed. Through our collaboration with other departments, the project will live on through the agency for many years to come that will improve the efficiency and productivity. I give my recommendation to any luck company that hires her because you are getting one special talent and visionary.
Lauren is a pure delight to work with. No detail is left unattended, no partnership left neglected and all deliverables sent in on time and on budget. She was a great project manager, communication point and lead on any project I worked on with her. I'm grateful for the time she put in with PBS SoCal, she helped grow our digital and social presence tremendously and kept teams on target to deliver relevant and thoughtful content. I am very grateful for my time working with her, she kept the projects in order!

Lauren worked with me when I managed content for eBay’s social media channels. Shortly after coming on board, Lauren acquired an excellent understanding of eBay’s social brand and voice, enabling her to create engaging content that appealed to millions of eBay’s social media followers. Overall, Lauren was a fantastic asset to my team – a team player who worked well in cross-functional teams, delivering on crunch deadlines in a fast-paced work environment, and being an adept project manager in managing and prioritizing her tasks and deliverables.
"I had the pleasure of working with Lauren at ProFlowers. Not only did we work together, but we also shared a cubicle so I attest to the fact that she is an excellent neighbor. 🙂 Very proactive and personable, she comes to the table with her own ideas, but is also very receptive to pivoting with feedback.The greatest testament to her value as a team member is when was instrumental in helping the social team reach their 1-year goals in 4 months."
Kirstie Van Der Spry

I personally recommend the work of Lauren. I have found her to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication, quality, commitment and a smile. Besides being a joy to work with, Lauren is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and communicate the benefits of the organization she represents. She successfully developed marketing and trade show plans for me that have resulted in increased customer interest.
Though she was an asset to our team’s efforts, Lauren was also extraordinarily helpful in supporting our company’s overall mission. In addition to providing effective trade show marketing support , Lauren assumed a valuable role in supporting planning meetings, inspiring and motivating other employees. I highly recommend Lauren for employment. She is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.

"As a student in my PR Campaigns class, Lauren showed initiative and a drive to succeed from day 1. So I was not surprised when she was awarded the PRSA Scholarship for “Rising PR Professional.” Lauren proved to be an excellent student, shining during the final project when she presented a mock PR campaign to the Greater Richmond Red Cross."
