The Girl

Lauren Friedman is a writer, photographer, cook, daughter, sister, CU alumna, new media enthusiast, and so much more. She loves her family, friends, The Boyfriend, and her two cats, Izzy and Jasper. She is a self-diagnosed workaholic (although many people who know her wouldn’t disagree). She questions everything and is constantly looking for new ways to pique her curiosity. She’s been known to dip her toes in too many puddles for her feet to stay grounded. She enjoys a perfect latte, a sunny day in San Francisco, a glass of red wine, making lists (sometimes just for the sake of making them), and cooking from scratch. She is slightly obsessed with all things beauty, skin care and hair products and owns more mascaras and lipglosses than she could even count. As a perpetual optimist, Lauren believes you have the power to create your reality. And happily ever after is not just for fairytales.

Where She’s From

Lauren was born and raised in Denver, went to school in Boulder, and followed her dreams to San Francisco. She now lives in the heart of the “Tender Nob” – five blocks from Union Square, surrounded by buildings and people and the breath of city life.

What She Does

By day, she leads Social Business Enablement in the Center of Excellence at Adobe. She loves her job. By night, she is still obsessed with social media, an aspiring photographer, avid movie-watcher, restaurant enthusiast and all-around city explorer. When she’s not exploring San Francisco, she’s traveling the world — New York, Los Angeles, London, Sydney.
