I'm Lauren, a San Francisco native who loves being in creative environments, collaborating with others, and learning new skills! I discovered my passion for design in high school whilst creating branding material for clubs and organizations. The way design is able to communicate and connect people together from different walks of life inspires me.

I then decided to pursue a degree in Graphic Design and went to San Jose State University. After graduating, I felt conflicted about pursuing a career in graphic design. I started to think about what I wanted to do and began looking at different branches of design. I also wanted to pursue a career that would be able to help people. This is when I found out about UX Design.

What I love the most about this field is being able to use my creativity and empathy to solve problems for people through research and implementation.

On the side, I’m trying as many milk tea places as I can while planning event at Boba Buddies! I also enjoy watching cartoons and drawing them while I wait for my next adventure.

Currently, I'm working as a UI/UX Designer for ChopDawg!
