Booth-Shantel

Started as an intern and now I’m here. You can find me in the office keeping it simple and keeping it real. Outside of work, I’m probably joking around with friends and family

Shantel Booth

Marketing Assistant

 
Burra-Siri

My affinity for technology and design keeps me learning constantly. I love traveling the world with my family, which has given me the opportunity to meet people of all cultures and positively affected my outlook in life. When I'm not busy chasing my kids around, I enjoy spending time stargazing and sleeping!

Sirisha Burra

Associate Digital Marketing Specialist

 
Clemons-Sarah

As a classic extrovert, I often find myself offering useless trivia whether you wanted or not. You can usually find me in or on the water at any time of year, and I tend to recharge the best in the woods. My career developed by accident while working as a switchboard operator 14 years ago when the director of marketing caught me doodling, and the rest - they say- is history.

Creative Specialist

 
Wooding_Danielle 

As an event planner and lover of lists, I thrive on organized chaos and the hustle of planning multiple events at once. From health care to the professional sports industry, my experience spans more than five years in marketing, community relations, and event planning. Outside of the office, you’ll often find me playing with my rescue cat, Mila, practicing yoga or exploring all Michigan has to offer.

Fecho-Vicki

I am the office mom and find joy in helping others complete their projects and stay on task.

Vicki Fecho

Administrative Specialist

 
Johnson-Christopher

I shoot, edit, and create graphics for a variety of internal and external video productions. After growing up in East Lansing and graduating from Grand Valley State University with a degree in Film & Video Production, I moved to St. Joseph to start my job with Lakeland in 2010. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outside, working on projects around the house, and being endlessly amused by my dog and two cats.

Christopher Johnson

Senior Video Productions Specialist

 
Meeth-Elizabeth

Hobby homesteader who can’t get enough of her garden, and exploring the great outdoors with her husband and two children. Believes every sunset in southwest Michigan is just breathtaking! Left her former career as a television news anchor to spend more time on her hidden talent: amature duck-calling.

Elizabeth Meeth

Marketing & Communications Specialist

 
Peden-Katie

At the tender age of 12, I was dazzled by the sparkle of marketing, and ten years later, I officially made it a (paying) career. Now, I spend my days with a positive, energetic team that is working hard to make a difference in our community. When I'm not hanging out with my work pals, you can catch me outdoors with my dog, indoors with a good movie, or scoping out food trucks or festivals around west Michigan.

Katie Peden

Marketing & Communications Specialist

 
Sebrechts-Ryan

I am a graphic designer at heart, but I love being behind the camera. I use my design skills to create marketing materials and maintain the best lawn in town. I’m looking forward to capturing the moments of welcoming my first child in October 2018.

Ryan Sebrechts

Creative Specialist

 
Shine-Matt

My inspiration comes from being creative and solving big, meaningful problems with people I admire and love to work with. Outside of work you can often find me cheering on the Spartans and spending time with my wife and 3 kids.

Matthew Shine

Manager of Digital Marketing &
Video Productions

 
Springer-Jessica

I have a passion for creating content and telling stories to help people live a healthier life. I’m a total nerd for correct grammar usage and all things social media. When I’m not at work you can find me at the barre or soaking up every bit of Michigan sunshine I can.

Jessica Springer

Senior Marketing &
Communications Specialist

 
Starbuck-Kathy

After 13 years of the windy city, I moved back to my great hometown of southwest Michigan. Slightly OCD and ridiculously organized, I love to keep things simple and happy. With over 20+ years of experience in marketing and communications, I still love the challenge. When I’m not with our amazing team, I’m loving life with my boyfriend and our two rescue dogs, Roxie & Hollywood.

Kathy Starbuck

Marketing Manager

 
Stark-Chuck

I assist in maintaining the many Lakeland websites and a network of digital displays throughout the system. I enjoy learning new technologies, remodeling projects and spending time with my family.

Chuck Stark

Digital Marketing Developer

 
Svorec-Lenee

At work, I’m inspired by kindness, trust, and caffeine. Being there for others is important to me, whether that’s helping someone with a project or sharing my snack drawer. When I’m not at work, I’m usually with my husband Cory, checking out new restaurants, or hanging out with our two adorable cats Max and Emily.

Lenee Imler

Marketing & Communications Specialist

 
Tippin-Abbey

Around the office, I like to keep it mellow and fun, which means green tea and FriDay of Denim. Originally from mid-Michigan with a couple of moves under my belt, I’m learning all about southwest Michigan’s two seasons: growing and snowing. Among other things, I’m a wife and writer (with a novel in the works), and I’ve worked with words professionally since 2013.

Abigail Tippin

Marketing & Communications Specialist

 
Wagner-Laura

Responsible for external marketing programs that expand the organization’s reach and result in positive ROI. My strengths are strategic communication, project management, creative idea generator and decoding the handwritten notes of our CCO. I grew up in southwest Michigan, have a husband, young daughter and large lovable dog named Outlaw who does not live up to his name.

Laura Wagner

Marketing Manager

 

I am inspired by helping people, making my world a better place, and producing effective work at the height of innovation and creativity. My joy through work is encouraging my team members to grow and flourish in their careers. I find peace in nature, learning, and the arts.
