Hello!
My name is Lauren (she/her) and I was apart of the UM DDCSP ‘19 cohort. I graduated from Oberlin College in 2021 with a BA in Geology and Environmental Studies concentrating in Urban Sustainability. Currently, I serve as a Management Consultant working within the digital Environmental, Health & Safety, and Sustainability team for Arcadis, a global sustainable design and engineering company. My professional focus at Arcadis centers around working with clients to help implement environmental software and databases.
Outside of my current position, I hope to continue my studies in Urban Planning, Environmental Justice, and GIS with a focus in affordable housing. My other hobbies include cooking, baking, fermenting, knitting, and a bit of ceramics.
