Sarah Fell, MBA, LSSGB, SPHR, SHRM-SCP

Lauren Poynter is a highly motivated TA practitioner with ambition and skills to back it up. When she was on my team I knew that I could present Lauren with any challenge and she would be quick to strategize a game plan and execute on the delivery. Lauren lived up to the AEVEX Core Values of Accountability, Integrity, Teamwork, Excellence, and Tenacity, with special emphasis on Tenacity. I would happily rehire Lauren because she has what it takes to be a great leader, a strategic thinker, and ultimately drive growth in Talent Acquisition.
