What is more meaningful than sharing our story with the world? Fundamentally, we all hold the gift of creativity and Lauren can not help but utilize this skill. She lives for inner and outer peace by working her passion — the process of photography and poetry. To have discovered her own language is an accomplishment, and continued practice, with the hope of harmonizing and inspiring those around her.

“Art has the power to render sorrow beautiful, make loneliness a shared experience, and transform despair into hope.”

—Brené Brown
