About
Hi, I'm Lauren
I am a designer, researcher and strategist working with teams to help solve civic tech problems for the federal government.
I have over a decade of experience working on digital transformation projects, in addition to operating as an industrial designer for physical spaces. My design process incorporates trauma-informed research to develop accessible and intuitive digital experiences.
You'll notice some hand sketches across my work. That's just how I dissect the problem, and establish a baseline. It also helps me iterate ideas quickly, and communicate complexity to cross-functional teammates.
I have a BFA in Graphic Design from Corcoran College of Art + Design. In my spare time, I like art, fitness and vintage things.
I am currently reading Empire of AI.
