I’m Lauren, a minutiae-loving UX generalist and charismatic optimist.

I'm a generalist UX designer with over 5 years of experience taking products from 0 to 1 while managing every phase of UX. I've fully owned the design of four critical applications used daily by over 11,000 users. Whether in B2B or enterprise design, I bring strong pattern recognition to my research, wicked rapid prototyping skills, and a knack for persuading stakeholders to see the value in usable, thoughtful design—even when it takes extra time or investment.
