Co-Founder@Alter New Media LLC

Hello, I'm Lauren, the co-founder of Alter New Media, a purpose-forward marketing and media company serving mission-driven and disruptive companies and creators to achieve their goals while making a difference in the world.
When people ask me how I got started in this industry, it takes a moment because my path has been unique. I did not go to school to pursue entrepreneurship or business-- it found me. In the years before joining Alter New Media as its co-founder, I worked as a photographer, videographer, and marketing strategist. My work has been displayed in NYC and at the Louvre Paris, and I have worked on both the editorial and the commercial side. What drives me to love marketing and business is its vast potential. I am known for my creative, out-of-the-box ideas and passion for bringing good people and companies together for good.
In my free time, I am an avid consumer of great music (especially the 80s and early 90s), history docs, and new venues and happenings in my new home in Las Vegas.
