Lauren joined the Wildcat Tribune in her freshman year with no knowledge of journalism whatsoever. In the years since, she has discovered her passion for writing and has met some of her closest friends. She previously served as a Copy Editor, a News Editor, and Managing Editor. She is honored to be spending her fourth and final year with the Tribune as Editor-in-Chief. If she could time travel, Lauren would visit the Library of Alexandria. She enjoys listening to music and doing escape rooms. If she could be any other person on the Tribune, Lauren would be Mayukhi because of her bubbly optimism and can-do attitude.
