Lauri Pastrone
Director of Research
Chris Stenlake
Director of Data & Analytics
Lauri joined PressChoice after being Director of Research for Latin America for IDC, specialising in market research for the information technology and consumer technology sectors.
She has been with PressChoice for over 10 years and runs offices in both London and Los Gatos, California.
She spends much of the rest of her time volunteering for the charity, Women for Women, which works worldwide to help women survivors of war rebuild their lives. She has recently created a cookbook in aid of the charity. Amongst the many she persuaded to make editorial contributions to the book were: Meryl Streep, Desmond Tutu, Emma Thompson, Richard Branson, Paul McCartney and Mia Farrow, amongst others.
Chris began his career as a geologist, first analysing data for Linc Energy. But he soon started digging for other kinds of nuggets and turned his technical analysis skills to business consulting, where he became the Insight Manager for the consultancy group, Peloton. His team dedicated itself to transforming high potential businesses into high impact companies.
Chris is now a key member of the PressChoice team designing new ways of both analysing data and creating impactful ways of presenting messages in clear and precise formats.
