One of Lauren’s goals is to build a presence on social media. A few things that contribute to Lauren’s love of social media is photography and her eye for aesthetics. She is the type of person to pay attention to detail, especially when it comes to visuals.

A fun fact about Lauren is that she enjoys traveling. Before the pandemic, Lauren was constantly making leisure trips from Fresno, to Los Angeles, to San Francisco.
