Hi! I’m Lauren, a junior studying Art Education. Most of the time you can find me covered in paint or tinkering with a design project, trying to incorporate more glitter glue, pearls, pipe cleaners etc.
I grew up in Spain, and I learned early that creativity was the surest way to belong wherever I landed. Since then I’ve worked many jobs, but my favorite role has always been observer—collecting small, odd details.
When I’m not writing or making art, I’m probably planning a themed birthday party. Last year was bugs, this year soup themed? You can often find me eating strawberries or collecting any strawberry related memorabilia. I’m also the #1 global consumer of sweet treats.
Most importantly I believe the best stories live in the tiniest images, seeds, crumbs, scraps of conversation, and I’m excited to scatter mine here at Her Campus.
