This month we’re featuring our one-and-only sweet Southern charm, Anna Lake.
Anna has the unmatched ability to make anyone laugh anywhere, anytime, even when she doesn’t even try. Born and raised in Alabama, Anna ditched the honky-tonks and her title as the greatest of all-time sorority president at Auburn University to join us in sunny South Florida. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have her on our team.
Anna likes to constantly Be Real, so you can find her reading a scandalous book on her Kindle or playing with her cat, Porkchop (please ask her about how this name came to be). Join me in reading and learning more about our TikTok queen, Anna Lake.
Work you and personal you likely differ slightly. So how would your friends describe you?
Loyal. It’s the Hufflepuff in me.
And how would Lorne describe you?
Overly zealous + easily excited. And I would take that as a compliment.
Bookworm or TV addict?
Bookworm! You’re lookin at the top A.R. Book Point holder of Smiths Station, Alabama in 2011.
What’s your funniest Fish memory?
Lorne performing Michael Jackson’s thriller dance at Fishmas. Why did this even happen??? Idk but I am very glad it did, and even though some of us won’t remember every detail of that night I can promise you no one will forget THAT.
If you were Lorne for a day, what would you do?
Wake up and give Anna Lake a raise, fly to NYC for lunch at Katz Deli, end the day with a bottle of Dom Perignon and telling Bernie he is the best father in the world.
Early bird or night owl?
Early bird!
What are you currently binge watching?
White Lotus season 2. Jennifer Coolidge <3
Tacos – hard shell or soft shell?
Soft shell
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I would change the fact that I am not famous.
If it were up to you, what would your song selection be for conference line hold music?
Whatcha Say by Jason Derulo (on repeat)
Bloody Mary or Mimosa? And you can’t say both, although I’d absolutely respect it.
Bloody Mary. ALWAYS.
You can bring anyone as a date to a dinner party, dead or alive, who’s your plus one?
Zendaya (A.K.A best actress of the century)
We know you can’t sing, but what’s your go-to karaoke song?
Must go with Josh on this one… who started the rumor that I can’t sing?? BUT… Islands in the Stream by Dolly Parton. And I’ll sing Kenny Rogers verses too.
What’s your party trick?
I can do the worm astoundingly.
Pick your poison – straight shot or mixed cocktail?
Mixed cocktail
Amy Poehler or Amy Schumer?
Who?? Amy ROBACH of course. And YES I am on her side with all the Good Morning America drama.
If you could spend a year living anywhere in the world, where would it be?
A penthouse in the East Village
When was the last time you told a lie? And if you say you don’t lie, then your answer should be “right this second.”
This is very offensive to Auburn fans, so I am really outing myself by admitting this. BUT my Uber driver on the way to the Fort Lauderdale airport knew I was from Alabama, and he got VERY excited because he is a huge Bama football fan. I am actually an Auburn fan (Bama’s rival), but I never told him and just pretended to share his love for Alabama football because he was soooo excited to talk to me about it. I am very sorry Enrique and you were a wonderful driver.
Besides an ice-cold cocktail, what motivates you?
Making myself and family + friends proud
If your name were an acronym, what would it stand for?
Annoyingly cool
Never boring
National icon
Angelic
