Someone start a drumroll please and let’s all congratulate @Lauren Dominique on being our June Member Spotlight! 

Lauren is an Executive Assistant at Connecticut Children’s in the US and a Smartsheet Community Champion. When she started her current role a few years ago, she had never heard of Smartsheet or used anything like it. Her manager asked her to become the department’s go-to Smartsheet resource, and she began down a road of amazing learning and growth! 

She credits the Community with helping her learn various solutions, like how to create graphs that automatically update on a rolling basis. With a simple search, she found several other members who had the same question, and even better, people who had solutions. “That’s something I’ve learned from the Community - so very often, there’s more than one solution to the problem we’re trying to solve,” she says. “It’s so fun to have people to nerd out with as you talk through all the creative and innovative possibilities!” 

When asked to pick her favorite Smartsheet feature, Lauren says she has two: WorkApps and Dynamic View. 

“I love how WorkApps makes it easy to distinctly package together a variety of Smartsheet tools and resources for a diverse set of collaborators. Similarly, I love how Dynamic View simplifies the process of collecting information from specific users during complex and collaborative projects. It allows us to create very sophisticated underlying sheets while still maintaining a user-friendly interface for the end-user.” 

Recently, Lauren became a Community Champion, and shortly after, spoke at an in-person user group in New York City. In front of a packed house, she showed how she created an invoice management solution, the same solution that inspired her 2023 Community Created Template Showcase. Her favorite part of the day? The audience Q&A. “They had awesome questions and brought an amazing energy,” she explains.

Outside of work, Lauren loves duckpin bowling, singing with her community choir, and attending minor league sporting events. If you’re ever in Hartford, Connecticut, you may even hear her sing the US national anthem at Dunkin' Park, home of the Hartford Yard Goats!  

Thank you Lauren, for all that you do!
