Lauren earned a degree in Interior Design from the Illinois Institute of Art in Schaumburg, Illinois after initially obtaining a degree in education from Purdue University and realizing it was not where her passions lied. Her background in commercial and hospitality interiors gives her a balance of technical and creative skills that help create designs that are not only beautiful but functional. Her favorite aspect of design is working with the clients and helping them achieve a design they are excited about. In her free time she is a big fan of Netflix, cooking, and dance.
