Howdy! Thanks for stopping by.
Since you're here, you probably want to know a bit about me, eh? Well, I'm a very detail oriented person, who is exceptionally organized. Seriously though, "To Do" lists are a gals best friend. I have excellent communication skills and a strong ability to work well under pressure. I eat, breathe and sleep all things social media (if that was humanly possible). I'm energetic, enthusiastic, and am a strong believer in loving what you do.
Want to know more? Kickback and stay a while here at laurenmarinigh.com, creep some of my social media networks OR contact me! I'm very open to freelance opportunities so if you have a job that you think I may be able to help you out with, send an email my way at lauren.marinigh@hotmail.com.
If you’ve been following me at all over the last two years, you may (or may not) have seen that I have had a podcast since 2019 called Somebody Date Us. This podcast was born out of feeling defeated after a breakup, and hearing similar complaints and issues from my single friends. I joined forces […]
If you asked me a year ago if I ever wanted to be 100% remote, I would’ve given you a “hell no”. The idea of working from home, although sounds glamorous and convenient to some, to me, in a tiny Toronto bachelor apartment it did not. I’ve turned down jobs prior to COVID that were […]
I’ve written about the tools that I use the most as a social media manager before (link here), but that was a few years ago, and like anything, things change. Not only has my job changed since then, but also new tools come out, and new things prove to be more useful for different roles […]
2020 has been a ride. This was definitely not the year I was expecting when the clock struck midnight, and I rang in the new year on the other side of the world in Uganda. Who knew how much life would change this year? And how much history would be made. As a social media […]
Nothing really in your life prepares you for losing your job. Back in 2018, I was completely shocked when my employer at the time laid me off (along with hundreds of others). Not only had they just confirmed our jobs were safe a day before, but I never really had a plan, or thought about […]
We’ve been now working from home for about seven months now. Doesn’t it feel like an eternity ago when we were all forced into lockdown for only two weeks? Little innocent us having no idea that two weeks would turn into something much more. Working from home was always something most of us dreamed about. […]
Always a pleasure to be around, Lauren mixes her likeable persona with an unwavering dedication to her day-to-day. The shortest way of saying it would be that Lauren is a consummate professional, with an ability to neatly service her clients with a results-driven approach while being one of the most genuine people in the office. However, her attributes also go much deeper, given her unrivalled organizational skills, an aptness for project management and the positive attitude she always brings to the table.
I met Lauren through LinkedIn looking for someone to help with our content creation, and I’m so glad our paths crossed! She regularly writes for us diving into in-depth article topics about anything from engineering products to entrepreneurship to partnerships. Her finished work is creative, concise, and clear. I am particularly impressed by Lauren often handing in work before the deadline and her eagerness to tackle the next projects. She’s an asset to any team!
"Lauren reported to me for two years at Futurpreneur - and it was one of the highlights of my time there. I always appreciated the innovative thinking she brought to her role, and was even more impressed with her ability to power through a heavy workload. To top it off, her sunny personality could turn around even the hardest days. I would love to work again with Lauren in the future, but until I get the chance to hire her (or she hires me!), I'll give her my strongest recommendation."
"Lauren writes great content. And if that sounds like an over simplification, that's because it is. She's of course a problem solver and inspiring leader. But she also goes the extra mile to deliver content that both helps and engages an audience. I'd read the ingredients on a soup can if Lauren wrote it."
"Lauren has been an outstanding mentor for me during my time working at the Sheridan Student Union. I had the pleasure of working with Lauren for one year at Sheridan Student Union as she led the Marketing Team at the campus I attended. Lauren's fantastic organizational and time management skills made my job very easy and enjoyable. I was particularly impressed by Lauren’s impeccable digital media marketing and social media skills that were very effective for students at Sheridan. Lauren was an outstanding leader and I will continue to look up to Lauren throughout my career."
"Lauren was a devoted student in my Design & Technology and Online/Social Media classes. She was always attentive and eager to learn new skills in the area of PR print & web design, computer technology and social media, and she put great effort into every project!"
"Lauren was a wonderful asset to our team. She demonstrated great enthusiasm and used her communication and social media skills to generate positive news stories for Peel schools. Lauren also provided flawless support in the planning and execution of special events. We wish her all the best, and know she has a long career in public relations ahead of her."
