Name: Lauren Givens
What is your position at RDS?
I am the Marketing and Business Development Manager.
What are your current job responsibilities?
I’m working to create a system to show our clients and builders how much they mean to us at every point in the process and our relationship. We want to provide the best service possible and I’m working on the creative side to accomplish that.
When did you begin working at Residential Designed Solutions?
I started working here in January of this year.
Where else have you worked?
I’ve worked at a wide variety of places, but most recently worked in residential real estate.
How long have you worked in the industry?
I grew up attending industry events with my Dad and helping around the office during school breaks as I got older. This is a new and exciting chapter for our family business.
What colleges did you attend and what training have you received?
I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Communication Design with a minor in Marketing and Art History from Kent State University.
Where do you live?
I live in a little fixer-upper in Westerville with my husband and rambunctious little boy.
What volunteer work do you do?
I hope to get involved with the NARI (National Association of the Remodeling Industry) Community Service Committee this year. They have been working to fix up a women’s home in Delaware County for the last couple years. RDS is a proud member of NARI and the impact they have on the community.
What else do you want us to know about you?
I’m a momma to an energetic, spirited, and sweet little boy, and wife to one of the strongest and funniest guys I know. I’m a coffee-fiend, amateur foodie and lover of all things Ohio, beautiful books, and handwritten notes.
We’re in the business of making houses into homes. What do you love about your home?
I love the potential my home has to be a cute little ranch on a quiet street in Westerville. But I mostly love the memories that are created daily with my husband and son. The walls are filled with laughter and joy.
