? Faces Behind the Spaces: Meet Katlyn Lakie ? “What I enjoy most about my role at OE is collaborating with my amazing team! One project I'm most proud of is the Wells Fargo 3WFC-6 project, which involved multiple design iterations, significant changes, and repurposing products from various locations. Despite the complexities, my team and I completed it flawlessly.” ?? Words from the Team Katlyn’s quick wit and love for Alani Nu bring great energy to our design team. She takes immense pride in her work and consistently strives for perfection! – Mary Modla, Director of Design
