There are people who get caught up in corporate greed, and then there are people like Lara Blackert.
Lara has worked very hard to get to where she is at in life, and that is why she is now the Vice President of Human Resources at Caravan Health. There was a lot of blood, sweat and tears involved to get to where she is at, but she would give it all up in a heartbeat if it meant compromising her morals and values.
She has worked hard to fight for the things she believes in at her work, and she has found all the solutions without compromising anything.
She stands up for what she believes in, and that is something that is a very admirable trait she possesses. Her husband Justin is constantly in awe of everything his wife does to make sure she is standing her ground, and he is glad that she has the amazing personality she has.
“She is thoughtful, trustworthy, dedicated, has high integrity, is respectful and has good values and morals.”
These morals and values are seen in every aspect of her life, from the way she raises their son, Ray, to the way she treats everyone at work. She is someone who respects everyone, and she is someone who is always going above and beyond to make sure people are taken care of.
“Lara is a very loving mother to our 4-year-old son Ray,” Justin said. “She is a devoted wife and partner. She never looks for the easy way out. Lara is a hardworking HR professional who has climbed the corporate ladder at a very fast pace.”
While she has gotten all the way toward the top of the corporate ladder, that has not stopped Lara from continuing to treat everyone equally. She holds herself to an even higher standard now, and she is continually fighting for the things she believes in.
“She has a strong and opinionated personality at times,” Justin said. “That can be good and bad. In HR, you are not getting a whole lot of rainbow and Skittles thrown at you at times. However, from what I have heard, she makes things better and sets the tone for change for women especially. She is very invested and motivated to have a positive impact on that.”
Lara is constantly working hard to make the changes that need to be made, and that was part of her motivation to get to the highest level. She wanted to have a chance to be a voice for change, and she does that every single day at work.
She is always standing up for others, and she is also someone who is genuinely interested in the betterment of everyone around her. This reigns particularly true with Lara’s family and friends, as she is always making sure they are okay.
“She is really genuine in dialing it in,” Justin said. “She will check in with her friends and ask them how the family’s doing. She is always looking out for their wellbeing. She has had her own issues with mental health, but she has not been shy to put that at the forefront. She just always checks in with people from a real genuine perspective.”
With Lara, you get the real deal. She does not sugar coat things, but she is also not someone who is going to be anything but 100 percent compassionate and caring with you.
This compassion and care are seen at a whole other level when it comes to Ray. Lara wants what is best for him and wants him to always have everything he needs.
“She approaches him with such love and care and understanding,” Justin said. “I’ve been amazed in the transformation of herself because of his presence. Her approach is much more heartfelt and driven.”
Lara is driven in all aspects of life, and she is someone who is always going to be dedicated to everything and everyone.
Justin cannot speak highly enough of the love his wife shows toward everybody every day, and he is glad that he has her by his side.
“She is everything to me,” he said. “Not only is she my partner in life, but my best friend. She is someone I can truly count on.”
Lara and Ray are Justin’s entire world, and seeing the way she is as a mother and a wife makes him more and more appreciative with each passing day that he has the most amazing, loving wife he could imagine standing right next to him.
“Even though I might not show it in the ways that she may show it, there is not a thing I love more in the world than my life with her,” Justin said. “I can’t do it without her. She is the perfect person for me, and I am content with that.”
