Lauren is such a hard, dedicated worker. I worked with a Lauren In Group Sales at the Walt Disney World Resort and she went above and beyond all expectations of her role. Lauren is positive and always striving to do her best. I would highly Recommend Lauren for any job and know that whoever she is working for is very lucky to have her.

Ms. Lauren Sheets is a joy to work with as a team member and as our Catering Sales Manager. Lauren is diligent with every event, contract, and BEO. Lauren's work towards the big picture in our departments daily, weekly, and monthly goals and numbers is very clear and highly structured. Lauren is mindful of her sales goals, the departments budget and is always collectively working with everyone within the team to make our numbers, goals, and projections. Lauren is very meticulous, communicative, thoughtful and considerate to every client, guest, and team member. Lauren pays attention to what's needed of her from her clients and listens to their wants and needs, always working towards fulfilling any and all requests from them to the best of her abilities and resources while maintaining and balancing the profitability of our business. Lauren is always searching for the best options, answers, and creative solutions for all of the requests that are asked of her by the client while simultaneously upselling and suggesting workarounds to any of our clients wants, wishes, and budgets. Lauren is always willing to jump in and do whatever is needed of her to help the catering and restaurants team in any way she can to make sure everyone gets the support they need to execute and deliver above and beyond what our clients/guests expect from our services and products. Lauren is always available to offer her support to anyone and conversely is always asking questions to become better educated and more proficient with her skills. She's driven towards being and doing more than what is needed, because of that and many other positive qualities and traits, she's grown to become an integral part our departments success and profitability. Lauren has added joy, laughter, quality, and most importantly, excellence to our team, staff, and department. So very proud to have Lauren on our team. Lauren's next chapter/company will be getting a stellar partner/team mate/quality individual that'll be adding positive energy, team synergy, and a light that'll shine for all involved.
