Hi, I’m Lauren

I’m a Creative Director with a strong design sensibility, proven creative instincts, and a storyteller’s mindset. I thrive at the intersection of big-picture thinking and detailed execution. I'm just as comfortable crafting the overarching concept as I am shaping the narrative that brings it to life.

I bring deep experience in creative direction and design across branding, campaigns, digital, social, and video. With an entrepreneurial mindset and a collaborative approach, I partner closely with clients and teams to develop bold, meaningful work rooted in strategy and storytelling. Creative leadership, sharp design instincts, and a passion for craft fuel everything I do.

Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring new places, getting lost in art galleries, baking fancy cakes, running half marathons, painting, binge-watching great TV, learning new things, and attempting to keep an ever-growing plant collection alive.
