Happy Birthday, Lara!

by in In The Office, Main on

It’s Lara’s birthday, y’all! That means it’s time to have a little out-of-the-office dance party in her honor! She’s not only our amazing boss, but an incredible source of inspiration and courage (not to mention one hot mama!). We SW ladies may not all be together today, but we’re sure together in wishing this lady the best birthday yet.
