About the Provider

Lauren loves midwifery because it allows her to help patients understand the changes they undergo during very important times in their lives. She enjoys being a resource of information and experience, and hopes for all her patients to feel empowered enough to decide which path is right for them. Lauren’s interests also include working with teens, with a focus on family planning and healthy choices, helping patients through perimenopause and menopause, and working with underserved populations. She has volunteered internationally with Doctors Without Borders as well as locally with refugee resettlement and in her kids’ schools.

Lauren is married to her high school sweetheart and they have two teens. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, gardening, music, traveling and loves the outdoors.
