In 2015, I started a new company, Hall Swim Academy. It was both scary and exciting. I was extremely blessed to connect with Lauren, our amazing account manager. There is no way I could run this business without her. Not only did she help me create a successful business, but she also attended and just graduated from medical school at USC. Her dedication to hard work, professionalism, and kindness makes her an incredible team member with Hall Swim Academy, and most importantly, my friend. Congratulations, Lauren! โค๏ธ
