As a native to Tallahassee, Lauren brings to the studio an intimate knowledge of North Florida. Her many years of experience in the performing arts have developed her strong skills of form and presentation. Lauren is a recent graduate who spends her free time with family and friends while somehow also finding time to volunteer at her church.
