About Lauren
Made in Texas, I pursued the world beyond and spent my formative years in Los Angeles and Paris working as a celebrity stylist and social media manager, dreaming of becoming a fashion creative director. Since then, my journey has been a path of pivots, that has grown my curiosity for discovering what else I can do.
I'm a diverse creative professional who takes opportunities across industries to craft presentations and develop impactful brand voices. With experiences in fashion to tech working with product teams, sales, and customer success as a marketer - I love to adapt and learn in new environments.
I thrive by applying my copywriting and design skills to create content for organizations. As a natural-born artist with a background in design, advertising, and marketing analytics, I bring a blend of strategic creativity to any project.
I’m a recent Master’s of Advertising and Marketing graduate from the University of Texas at Austin, aspiring to find a creative role to fuel my passion for building meaningful connections and helping companies scale.
Ultimately, I hope to do what I love most in this life, using the right side of my brain and discovering human truths.
When I'm not working or going to school, you can find me at the thrift store, drawing my next tattoo, and starting new passion projects.
Current interests: baking sourdough bread, filming fashion styling videos, designing graphics for craft beer cans, joining a run club (updated May 24, 2024, at 3:57 PM).
