A boring home office? Never seen one. Can you guess the role of the Elevator who logs on from this collector’s dream every morning? ? Designer ? Engineer ? Customer Support Agent . . . . . . . . If you guessed engineer, you’re right! Meet Andrew Dranse, Staff Data Engineer.?By day, he’s helping make our products even better. After hours, he’s putting in work (over 1000 hours so far) on some of the most impressive LEGO sets we’ve ever seen. Andrew, we cannot wait to see what you build next.?

There’s a lot of exciting work happening at Elevate Labs this time of year. As we head into the holiday season and the final weeks of 2024, though, we’re also taking time for moments of gratitude. One team member who’s doing a great job of this (and inspiring us along the way)? Jaime Gelpi! Jaime’s not only a stellar content marketer; she’s also a fitness instructor who helps her community find joy through movement. Hope you’ll join us in pressing pause on busy days (and pressing play on Balance’s Gratitude Single, while you’re at it). To our customers, our applicants, and to you, thank you for sharing this moment of gratitude with us.

Whether it’s a cold front moving in, dark skies arriving at 4 pm, or just some good old-fashioned end-of-year deadlines looming, let’s face it: November can be a little stressful. We hear you. To help brighten up your feed, we’re sharing some of the moments that have inspired us lately. From coworking to time with loved ones to snuggles with furry friends, we’re filling this time of year with as many joyful and relaxing moments as we can. Wishing you the best week to come. Oh, and if you need a few more relaxing moments? Join us on Balance. We can’t wait to see you there.

Every October, the team here at Elevate Labs celebrates the spookiest time of year (with a healthy dose of competition thrown in, of course). That’s right, we’re talking about a pumpkin decorating contest! Our team has one challenge — create a showstopping, bone-chilling, gourd-geous creation (and snap a pic to share on Slack). On the line? The candy supply of any trick-or-treater’s dreams. Take a look at some of this year’s entries, let us know which one you think deserves a crown, and from all of us at Elevate Labs, have a Happy Halloween!

A little secret for you, LinkedIn — if you’ve met Elevate Labs, you’ve met Anna Braunsdorf. Anna’s our VP of Content. If you’ve used our apps, read our blog, or checked out our website, you’ve seen some of the incredible work she and her team are doing. What you probably don’t know, though, is that Anna is also: ? A volunteer at her local animal shelter ? A die-hard Kansas City sports fan ? A mom of four (????’???? ?????????????????? ?????? ????????, ???????????? ?????? ??????????, ????????, ?????????????? ???? ???????????? ???? ??????.) We’re excited to bring you #InsideElevate and properly introduce Anna!

You know what they say – it’s not where you are; it’s who you’re with. But once in a while, the team here at Elevate Labs likes to have it all. Last week, some of our teammates left their home offices behind and headed to the Windy City for this year’s ?????????????????????? ?????????????????? ??????????. We have such a blast at our annual, sun-soaked company meetups (???????? ???? ???????? ??????????, ?????????????? ??????, ????????’???? ???? ???????? ???? ???????? ??????????) that we’ve also started offering full-time employees (and their partners) the chance to come together in an awesome city for a few days of adventure, quality time, and some meaningful in-person collaboration. After three days of team brainstorms, improv shows, baseball games, architecture cruises, walking tours, and (of course) a LOT of good food, we’re back to business as usual. We’ll let the smiles in these photos tell you everything else you need to know. Coworkers you can’t wait to travel with? The chance to show off a place you love or explore somewhere brand new? Deep dish pizza? On a Thursday?! It’s all part of the great thing we've got going on #InsideElevate.
