Lauren is an east coast native who found her home in Salt Lake City, UT. After attending the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at NYU, Lauren joined the workforce in the non-profit sector. After three years, she was ready for her next adventure and moved to Israel on an incredible journey that propelled her life in a new direction. Once she returned to the United States, she road-tripped to Utah on a whim and fell in love with the community. The Community Foundation of Utah was her introduction into the Utah non-profit landscape and she is proud to have helped grow CFU to what it has become. She is now working as the Outreach and Advocacy Manager at the Utah State Archives. In this dream job, Lauren is able to combine her passion for storytelling with her skills in both social media and traditional marketing.
