ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Lauren! I am a graduate from the University of Delaware, where I earned my BFA in Visual Communications. I am a creator, designer, artist, photographer, and lover of plants and animals. Most of my work is inspired by my love for nature.
Shortly after college, I moved to Philadelphia where I have been living for the past 2.5 years. In the past couple of years, I have expanded my bank of knowledge and experience by working in different environments and joining different communities within the city. I worked at a camera company, where I had the opportunity to work across multiple fields including design, marketing, shipping/receiving, film development, and printing.
Upon moving to Philly, I began training as a yoga instructor and received my certification in May of 2022. I started teaching weekly classes at a local yoga co-op. Teaching has enriched my life in a way I never imagined. It has pushed me out of my comfort zone to conquer my fear of public speaking, as well as introduced me to a network of amazing teachers and human beings. The community gives space to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment.
Since then, I have worked as an infant caretaker. Working with babies, I have been able to expand my creative assets in so many ways while learning about child development in the process.
Freelancing as a photographer alongside my other lines of work has given me the opportunity to merge my interests in art, community, and working with children.
In November of 2022, I went to my first acro yoga class, from which I was instantly hooked. Through consistent training in acrobatics, I have gained so much discipline, joy, strength, and a sense of community in this city.
Beyond that, I enjoy spending time with friends and playing with my new kitten, Clover. My highest value is the power of kindness and how it interweaves through every facet of life.
