Andrea Harrington

At 18 years old Lacey was hired on by the company that I worked for; however, due to company policy, for several years I did not have the pleasure of working alongside her. Being her Mother, this could pose a conflict of interest. That said, from a distance I was able to watch her grow and achieve performance awards in other departments. Eventually she was tasked with a special project to streamline my team's work flow. I had a team of remote employees and our previous process was quite archaic. This presented a challenge for Lacey and she would not have wanted it any other way. Without any disrupt to our daily production goals, Lacey was able to quickly identify our needs. She utilized her research skills and created a test environment within SharePoint. Due to the team structure and the confidential data we worked, Lacey had to not only streamline process, but incorporate levels of security around the new work flow. Lacey was persistent and would overcome any obstacle that was presented. Ultimately she was able to develop a process to securely house new data, distribute work, and track metrics. Lacey was methodical in her testing of the new work flow and followed through with creating process documents in order for my team to successfully maneuver the new platform and process. Lacey's diligence and creativity had a positive impact; not only for my team, but for others that were challenged by having remote employees, keeping data secure and tracking metrics. Even if Lacey were not my daughter, I would recommend her as an individual who takes great pride in her work and is extremely driven. She has common sense beyond her years and is a wonderful example of a successful woman in business.

Mary Frederick, SHRM-CP

Lacey is an incredible person to work with. Her ability to multi task, accomplish her work load, and help anyone in need is remarkable. Lacey has been instrumental in developing a Share Point site, creating process documents, and developing a macro to simplify reports. Lacey is a team player who has been instrumental in guiding the team on a positive and uplifting path. In my many years I have never met or worked with such a well rounded person. It is a great joy to work with someone who is as dedicated and positive as Lacey is. She will be a great asset in whatever she decides to pursue.

Field Asset Services then turned into Assurant Field Services which is a property preservation company. We repair and preserve foreclosed homes for banks. Assurant Field Servies maintains these properties until they are ready for resale. When banks send us new assets to manage, I set up these properties in our company system. At this time, the clients usually request cleaning services, trash removal and bids for home repairs. I create these in our system and notify the teams that will be working these orders or bids. Outside of setting items up, I handle reports to ensure the properties and services are correctly updated based on new data. While reviewing reports, I create excel macros to automate them if possible. I first extract the data from client websites or internal reporting systems, then use macros, or manually work these reports. An example of system updates is when I pull report shows the property types such as a condo or single family home. Condos often don't need lawn cuts, but most single-family homes have yards that should be mowed by our company. With this report, I can update the correct assets to condos in our system and prevent unnecessary service orders on properties without a lawn. Some reports I run are for management to view total order volume and rate of order completion. In cases like this, I have utilized pivot tables and certain functions in excel. This helps provide a quick view of the data to save time for managers. In 2017, our team gained seven offshore workers. I was in charge of their training plan and being their main contact. I scheduled daily meetings for various reports and moderated sessions where other teammates trained. I wrote over thirty process documents and instructed the new employees on over fifty percent of my reports through screen-sharing and group calls.

Upon arrival to the venue, I would set up the lighting, program flash timers, then collect my portable lights and extra equipment. Prior to the ceremony, I helped the brides with their "getting ready" pictures and carried any camera accessories the owners may need while taking the pre-ceremony photos. I gathered the wedding bands, flowers, shoes and other important items to be shot separately and returned them in a favorable timeframe. Once the service was done, the owners and I would go to a more quiet area with the newlyweds to get their photos taken together. I would maneuver the travel light and provide feedback on poses and locations to help the photographers to generate additional ideas.

I prevented additional company cost by looking for potential safety hazards in the asset photos, even when they did not pertain to the services completed on the order. I examined images of the property preservation services done on our foreclosed homes to ensure it was completed to client satisfaction and bid specifications. Throughout the day, I would process thousands of dollars in preservation work, while also maintaining my daily metrics. I would count multiple cubic yards of debris being removed from the property to confirm the contractor payment was justified. I regularly researched the assets through the company database to verify pricing, service history, and access to the property. When services were not completed to expectation, I would contact the contractor and ask them to provide more information and photographs. In some cases, they were unsettled that their work was being questioned, but I discussed the situation with them and settled many disputes calmly. This enabled me to build a good rapport with these contractors and in turn, quicker response times and information updates.
