Fancy seeing you here

Lauren graduated Cum Laude from Emerson College with a BA in Writing, Literature, and Publishing and minors in Psychology and Journalism in May 2024. Throughout college, she was the living editor of Your Magazine, an intern at GBH and Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team, a barista, darkroom manager, and wore several other hats.

You can read the latest issue of Your Magazine here. Lauren co-hosted Penny For Your Thoughts a weekly live radio show on WECB that dealt with all things cinematic; characters, music, storylines, and the soundtrack to her very own life.

After entering college as a journalism major, she switched to the WLP program for more creative freedom while grounding herself in the foundation of journalism to engage her audience and deliver truth for a better tomorrow.

She has always been interested in photography and has been shooting on her Dad’s old Minolta for a few years. Most recently, she got a Pentax Spotmatic. Her favorite film is Portra 400. Last year she took a photojournalism course and fell in love with photography all over again. All photos featured on this site have been taken by her, except for the photo of her on this page which was taken by her boss at the darkroom where she works part-time.

She doesn’t usually refer to herself in the third person.
