Lauren's professional background spans sales and consultation services in home renovation, design, and staging, which eventually led her to a successful career in real estate spanning nearly a decade. She and her husband are proud parents to two wonderful children who keep them actively engaged, alongside a lively assortment of cherished pets.

As a mother of two and a former foster parent to three children, Lauren has firsthand experience of how a child's environment and community support can profoundly influence their social and emotional development, shaping their future outlook. Her commitment to community service through organizations like the Junior Auxiliary of Tangipahoa reflects her dedication to supporting children and families in need.

While she couldn't pick a clear favorite, she highlighted "Storytime with Santa" as particularly meaningful to her. The magic of the Christmas season and the joy it brings to children as they engage with Santa and listen intently to his stories evoke nostalgic memories of her own childhood.

Lauren emphasized the importance of each community service project undertaken by the Junior Auxiliary, noting that each serves a unique purpose in enriching and supporting the local community. She conveyed enthusiasm about the dedication of the organization's members, describing them as energized and eager to create positive impacts.
