Hi there! I’m Lauren ˙ᵕ˙

I’m a design student with a love for satisfying interactions, storytelling, and quiet details that make the ordinary a little brighter.


What draws me most to design is its ability to create resonance — moments of delight, inclusion, and understanding that ripple through people’s everyday lives. I’ve always been fascinated by how thoughtful design can bring clarity to complexity and transform it into an experience that just feels right.


Outside of design, I love picnics in the park, rewatching The Sound of Music, mini dachshunds, logging restaurants on Beli, collecting junk for my journal in new cities, scenic hikes, and playing NYT Games.

The different environments, challenges, and ways of thinking that have shaped how I build and approach problems.
