TESTIMONIALS

“Moving to LifeWorking Coworking really stepped up my professional game. The environment is professional, modern, clean and contemporary. While I have a studio at home, I really enjoy networking with others in a collaborative space.”

Kathleen Weinstein

CEO of Friendly Interior Design

“Moving from my home office to LifeWorking Coworking brought balance and focus to my work, and boosted my productivity by 30%. When I’m here, I’m completely here. And when I’m at home, I’m completely at home.”

Tom Fletcher

Sales Director, Fujifilm

“At LifeWorking Coworking, I’m able to be laser focused and don’t have the distractions and expense of managing an office. It’s honestly added an extra zero to my monthly income.”

John Gynn

Attorney John Gynn

“I spent the first 18 months building my business from the kitchen table, the walk-in closet or any free space I could put a laptop. I needed to make home a home, not a workspace. The energy in our business changed the moment we moved to LifeWorking Coworking. ”

Debbie Pickus

Founder, Team Fireball

“I needed a professional space where I could focus intently on building a new business, and meet with coworkers, distributors and customers. What I didn’t need was a full-time office, the headache of a long-term lease, or the distractions of having to set all that up.”
