DENVER, COLORADO
Hi, I'm Lauren.
It's nice to meet you! I'm currently a product designer at the luxury travel company Inspirato.
I'm an end-to-end designer that takes collaboration seriously. I'm most rewarded at work when I can connect & interface with other designers, developers, stakeholders, and product managers. I also love helping the user, too ;)

My background
While working in the film industry, I fell in love with the psychology behind designing for each unique script. However, I still hadn't found my passion, and eventually was pointed in the direction of an immersive UX Design program. It didn’t take long to realize how my work in film was a great jumping off point for product design. The research needed to create a realistic world for an audience and the empathy needed to design for the character's story was a powerful foundation for the world of user experience design.
UX design is more than
pushing pixels. It's about
finding order in the
complexities
of
chaos
