Bio
Eben Conopask
I have had the great pleasure of working with Lauren over the past 3 years. We started working together at ROAR and then continued on after the merger with SapientRazorfish. We have worked on several high intensity accounts with demanding needs. Lauren was the best creative director/leader I could've been paired with to conquer any request. She is a natural born leader and an outstanding collaborator. She is dedicated to doing great work, no matter what the level of project and request. These strengths mixed with her bubbling personality and keen understanding of client relationship/management, is what makes the team that she oversees so dedicated and loyal to her as the creative lead.

Best. Creative. Ever. Seriously, she delivers. She was on my team for 18 months, and then she got promoted and ran a team next to mine. Lauren is an advertising machine. Original campaigns and concepts that have serious stopping power? Yes, she does that. The right brand voice that's also engaging and human? Yep, that, too. An eye (and brain) for detail to make sure tactics hang together strategically? All the yeses. Lauren is one of those rare professionals in advertising: responsible and brilliant enough to work on her own, collaborative and inspiring when it's time for teamwork. She has both a good short game (executions) and long game (strategy). She never throws in the towel. And she's funny as hell, as long as you provide her a steady supply of cheese.
