New Year, New Lane
As the year progressed ML was busy expanding the Lane both internally and externally. We’ve told you all about our additions to the office (Lauren, Deven and Jen) but we have one more BIG addition. A new office! We are now located at 305 7th Ave. Close to our old office but much better. We now rock out on the 17th floor with an awesome view! We’ve set up shop on one half of the floor while the renovations are being done on the other side. It’s been a crazy year but we’re excited for our new space to be done. Don’t worry, we’ll post pics when it's complete!
Our Year in Review
Our CEO, Kristal Mallookis has spent 2016 focused on the growth of Mustard Lane. She focused on improving events, policies and systems in a wide range of cities. Because of her endless dedication to ML, Kristal was able to hire full time staff and finally take a well deserved break. In the spring, she took a trip through Spain with her husband, Matt Zur. They were able to relax because she has developed a well-oiled machine here on the Lane.Molly has been hustling this year! She produced, wrote AND acted in her film, A Little Water. She launched Paired Entertainment, a multiple media film production company that she found with her friend, Charles Warburton. When does she stop!? Her film is currently in edit but we’ll keep you updated on when we can see it. Her year has been quite an accomplishment, on top of that she’s come to work full time internally on the Lane! She's our source of comic relief and classic tunes in the office. You can always count on Molly to know the best restaurants, recipes, and host the best parties!
Lauren has had quite the year. From graduating UofM to traveling Europe Lauren has kept busy. After moving to NYC, Lauren found her home on the Lane working full time internally. It’s only been a few months here but Lauren is getting the hang of NYC and life on the Lane. She keeps the Lane young with her knowledge of technology, social media and innovative spirit. For 2017, Lauren is looking forward to exploring this new city and trying every bagel shop! Check out her bagel instagram @los_baegoals
2016 was a great year for Deven. He wrote and performed with The Usual Rejects. Their first Off-Broadway performance was a huge success. They will continue to perform for full houses throughout 2017. When Deven's not preparing for a show you can find him on the Lane both in the office and onsite. He's a total ninja and a crucial part of the ML Family.
