We’re continuing our Meet the Team series with our newest member; meet Lauren!
Lauren used to work in the casino industry and lived near Lindsay Ontario, but once she and her partner, Dean, received the offer to make Lake Effects a second-generation family business, she was in Westport within the next few months! Still new to Westport, Lauren is excited to get involved in the community and business!
Here are some fun questioned we asked Lauren to get to know her a little better!
1. When you’re not at the store, what are you typically doing? (Hobby? Just relaxing?)
“Listening to or creating music, cuddling with my cats (Puma and Tilly), reading, or playing various games!”
2. If you were a colour, what colour would you be and why?
“Probably the colour Blue. Specifically like…a royal blue. There’s something so classic and elegant about that kind of blue.”
3. What is your favourite CR plastics item in the store?
“The Porch Rocker. It reminds me of the rocker my grandparents used to have.”
4. Settle this debate; should raisins be in oatmeal cookies?
“Absolutely, but I can always appreciate a plain oatmeal cookie. I just like cookies a lot in general!”
P.S. she’s also in charge of our socials now 😎
