Hello! I’m Lauren. I got my start over a decade ago making squishy virtual objects while interning at the MIT Game Lab. My work spans XR immersive theatre, AR filters, interactive installations, prototyping teams, platform-perfect games, emotion-driven VR, and experimental storytelling, on games like Monument Valley 2, and at places like Apple. Most recently, I cofounded Refract Studio - our clients have included Snap Inc, Google, IKEA, Meow Wolf, and more. If you’d like to work together, drop me a line!
