Chief Marketing Officer

Lauren has lived experiential learning as a student, parent, and lifelong traveler, and sees the job of communicating its value to the world as a vital and fulfilling career. An experienced customer-centric marketer, she joined WorldStrides through its enrichment division, Envision, and today, leads a marketing team that communicates the organization’s mission across our family of brands.

Lauren’s diverse skillset comes from a varied career journey with extensive marketing experience in both consumer and business products at American Express, driving growth and transformation at NetJets, turnaround at Vonage, and creating UNIQ Luxury, a start-up luxury marketplace. She also brings the perspective of being a parent to three amazing children who have each enjoyed experiential learning opportunities of their own, and are today in various stages of embarking on their own career journeys. Lauren is an involved alum of Brown University, where she earned her undergraduate degree, and holds an MBA in marketing from Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.
