Lauren Box

Chapter Vice President

“I’ve been working in Oil & Gas for about 20 years.  My background is primarily in the safety market with an emphasis on safety and catalyst services.  I first became involved with OC through Sarge Summers.  He and I have stayed in contact over the years and have helped each other out where we could.  When he spoke about the vision he had for OC, I knew I would love to be a part of this organization.  I feel like OC is the perfect place to connect with my peers who offer support and encouragement.  A group as strong and as large as OC is invaluable for finding out what’s happening within the Oil & Gas industry and providing new ideas for future business.  I’m very excited to be working with this collaborative and knowledgeable group!

In my free time, I enjoyed spending time with my family – my husband Stephen and my two daughters Harper & Hunter.  We especially love to go fishing at our bay house in Matagorda!”
