About Lauren
Lauren has always displayed a passion for storytelling. As a kid, she loved to make little movies with her friends. When she turned fourteen she started acting in local indie and student films, immersing herself in the Boston film community. Lauren credits much of her knowledge of the industry to Boston Casting, who nurtured her development from a young age. She has delighted in witnessing the growth of the MA film industry, which has allowed Lauren the opportunity to audition for roles in major tv shows and movies. Although, she recently moved to New York City, Boston Casting is still allowing her to audition as a local hire. Lauren looks forward to the increased opportunities from living in NYC, while still remaining connected to the growing MA film industry.
Lauren loves being both on camera and behind the scenes. With the insight from collaborating with student filmmakers around Boston, Lauren decided to study Film and Television at Boston University. Since graduating, she has worked as a production assistant, actress, and assistant editor. She has also created four of her own short films. Lauren is eager to grow as a storyteller in all aspects of filmmaking.
