Hey, I’m Lauren—

And this whole thing started right after college when I scraped together $300 and booked a one-way ticket to Mexico to teach English.

Years later, inspired by my love of travel and impulsive decisions, I launched Momento Goods—an e-commerce brand that worked alongside artisans and creatives to design and curate handmade goods from Mexico and Guatemala. Over time, this experience of exploring my curiosity led me beyond physical products and into the world of storytelling.

Now, as a copywriter, I help brands build community by sharing real stories—stories about pursuing wild ideas, doing things your own way, and the imperfect process behind building something you love.
