Researcher. Analyst. Writer.

I’m a seasoned UX researcher with a background in anthropology. Prior to working in user research, I worked as a web designer for entrepreneurs and artists.

I have training in qualitative and quantitative methodologies, a masters degree in human factors, and a CPACC accessibility certification. I love working for education-focused or mission-driven companies.

Testimonials

  • "Lauren did an outstanding job facilitating the focus group. I highly recommend you watch the recording, not only to see Lauren work her magic, but also to hear the depth and breadth of the feedback we received."

    Product Manager at Education Nonprofit

  • "Lauren is an inclusive and justice-oriented leader. She advocates for others (whether they be users or staff) all the time, is always mission-oriented, and ensures the team is centering our values all the time."

    Former Supervisor

  • "Lauren is principled in keeping her eye on the bigger picture. She can get down in the details and get a lot of work done, but she will always pull herself back up to consider: what assumptions we are making...how we can improve...and does this align with a greater strategy."

    Former Supervisor

  • "Your team did a great job and I especially appreciated your persistence to understand what we were trying to learn. It really showed in the presentation. Looking forward to digging into the report!"
