Motivators: making the industry better and having quality time with my family

Loves: goats, singing, dogs, coffee, wine, a warm fireplace and sunrise
Not so much: playdough/kinetic sand, red onion in salads, doing dishes, when I lose a single EarPod, waking up to view a beautiful sunrise 

Lauren’s favourite quote: “If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.”
