Meet Our Team

Executive Productions Ltd. owes its roots to Audrey Lakin, an event production specialist since 1985. After years as a marketing planner for the Chicago Board of Trade, Audrey went out on her own to start EPL, an event production company with a flair for excitement, a dedication to creativity, and a penchant for the superlative. Today, EPL works with clients of all sizes to throw extraordinary events that everyone will talk about for years to come.

Lauren believes every event is an opportunity to inspire all those in attendance. Known for her one-of-a-kind creativity, Lauren helps clients define their goals and develop imaginative event concepts to support them. Before EPL, Lauren was on the creative side of advertising, working as a copywriter for some of the largest agencies in Chicago and the country. Lauren’s dedication to carry on her mother’s legacy has helped EPL maintain the great relationships Audrey established with its loyal clientele.

Sarah brings an international flair to the Executive Productions team. Formerly the head of event logistics at a London experiential marketing agency, Sarah was responsible for the execution of live events from strategy through delivery. Event experience includes IPO international roadshows, product launches, conferences, and seminars. Attention to detail, a strong sense of organization, and the mantra “nothing is impossible” are Sarah’s strengths for events of all sizes.
