The West Shore Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Luminary Awards recognize highly respected businesswomen for their outstanding character, commitment, professional achievement, stellar performance and attitude. The Shining Star Luminary Award specifically recognizes a businesswoman who holds a non-executive position, volunteers within the community, seeks to continually improve herself both professionally and personally and is a strong team player.
“I feel so honored to be distinguished as a Shining Star Nominee Finalist as part of the West Shore Chamber’s 2023 Luminary Awards,” said Lauren. “It is humbling to be recognized for my character, commitment, achievements, performance and attitude, because I perceive all of those things simply as necessary components of my role as an advisor – helping my clients and team members achieve extraordinary outcomes, both within the Firm and within the community.”

Additionally, Lauren is a dedicated volunteer member of the Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (PICPA) South Central Local Connection Committee.
Lauren’s focus on serving nonprofits is not just professional, but also personal. Lauren volunteers as Board Treasurer of the West Shore Chamber of Commerce and is a former member of Harrisburg Young Professionals (HYP). For her outstanding character, professional accomplishments and dedication to making a positive impact for others, Lauren was recognized by Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts’ Women in Science, Technology, Education and Math (STEM) Awards as a Woman to Watch honoree in 2020.
