“Lauren has brought to Otter a broad array of marketing skills / expertise, along with a "roll up the sleeves and get things done" attitude. Whether it's a strategic initiative such as the rebranding of our entire business, or a more tactical plan around our communications content, Lauren has been wonderful to work with and reliably delivered on her work streams. I highly recommend Lauren for a high-growth company that needs a marketer willing to wear many hats, and put in the work needed to help move the business as a whole forward.”
