Biography

Lauren has worked in Special Education for 18 years, supporting students in grades K through 8. Prior to her work in the Bay in charter schools, she worked in a public school in Colorado for 10 years. Most recently Lauren worked as an administrator supporting several different campuses throughout the Bay Area, but is excited to get back into a student-facing role and support kids directly, along with their families. She loves building relationships with students and takes a strengths-based approach to her work to ensure that students are set up to thrive.

While not working, Lauren loves to travel as much as possible. She  also loves going to dinner with friends, exploring new parts of the city, spending time with her "Bay Area family", and watching Denver sports!
