Hi! My name is Lauren! I live on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi/Alabama, the greatest place on earth! I am a graduate of the University of Southern Mississippi with a degree in Marketing. I have a passion for people, social media, and building brand awareness. I have experience in social media marketing, marketing management, retail management, and the service industry. My goal is to help build brands by establishing strong relationships and innovative marketing strategies, specifically through social media. Since graduating college, I have worked with Mugshots Grill and Bar as their Marketing Manager and Gulf Coast Restaurant Group as their Marketing Director. I have also had the honor of doing freelance work with some awesome brands recently!

Now that you know about me professionally, here’s a little more about me personally!

I’m a huge sports fan—catch me cheering on my favorite teams any chance I get (and yes, my dog is named after Ozzie Albies because I take my Braves fandom very seriously). I recently married the love of my life, Justin, and being a wife and dog mom are my favorite things!

When I’m not working, you can find me experimenting in the kitchen or trying the new restaurant in town—I’m a big foodie, so trying new restaurants or recipes is always on my to-do list. Oh, and espresso martinis have basically become a personality trait of mine at this point.

At the core of everything I do, I strive to live a life that reflects my faith and brings joy to others. I’m so glad you stopped by my little corner of the internet, and I’d love to connect with you. Let’s chat over coffee (or espresso martinis)!
