San Diego – April 7, 2014. The Florida/Alabama Chapter of 7x24 Exchange has named Lauren Tucker, Director of National Sales with DataSite, to the position of Vice President of Central Florida Region.  In this role Lauren will be involved in promoting awareness of the organization, assist in coordinating events both locally and regionally and be an ambassador for sharing and education amongst critical facilities operators.

7 x 24 Exchange is an international organization with local and regional chapters worldwide.  Their mission is to be the leading knowledge exchange for designers, builders, operators and those who maintain mission-critical enterprise information infrastructures.  The ultimate goal is to improve end-to-end reliability by allowing open dialogue among these groups so everyone can share and utilize industry best practices for improvement in the way they do business.

Lauren has been with DataSite for just over 2 years and was just recently promoted to Director of National Sales.  Prior to this she spent 15 years in the Information Technology and Services space.  Most of that time was spent overseas with companies such as Chatsworth Products, a leader in IT product solutions and Anixter, an international supplier of communications and security products. Her knowledge of the industry covers both sides of the table, vendor and end user, giving her a unique perspective and level of understanding.

“7 x 24 Exchange is always looking for board members who are end users,” said Christopher Bachman, Executive Director of the Greater Florida/Alabama chapter of 7 x 24 Exchange.  Regarding Lauren as their choice for the Vice President seat he went on to say, “We believe that Lauren’s background on both sides of the table, as vendor and end user, along with her enthusiasm for the industry made her the perfect choice.  We are so excited to have her join our board!”
