The role of operations director at Acuitas is now being filled by Traverse City native, Lauren Martin. She succeeds long-time director of operations Kailey Hourani.

As the director of operations Martin is responsible for planning, budgeting, coordinating activities, and all office operations for Acuitas and clients as needed.

“This position has many components,” said Kevin Korpi, principal at Acuitas. “We were looking for a candidate who could handle multiple projects, keep them organized and meet deadlines. I’m confident that Lauren will excel at these tasks.”

Martin brings more than three years of experience in firm operations to Acuitas from her previous position at The Gillespie Company. As the development and office manager she completed everything from preparing and negotiating vendor contracts to executing leasing duties for commercial and residential tenants.

“Lauren’s attention to detail, enthusiasm and focus on teamwork will serve our team and clients very well going forward,” said Sarah Hubbard, principal.

After hours, Martin is the head coach for the Lansing Catholic Boys Junior Varsity Basketball team and enjoys playing outside with her dog Tripp.
