Whether you’re looking to develop your team's emotional intelligence or to boost your creative skills as a content/marketing/product team, I give talks and lead workshops that leverage the power of poetry to inspire both your work and workplace.
Research shows poetry is like music to your brain: everyone can feel it. My writing, workshops, and performances reclaim poetry as an accessible tool for you to experience playfulness, introspection and community.
With 6+ years working on AI like Bard and the Google Assistant, I’m committed to designing inclusive tech that helps us become more emotionally intelligent.
During my 6+ years at Google, I’ve seen firsthand how increasingly demanding deadlines, remote work, and the stress of economic uncertainty weaken the sense of creativity, community, and safety that employees need to thrive - and stay - in any company.
That's why my talks and workshops are a unique blend of poetry, psychology, mindfulness and AI that help teams connect meaningfully, acquire tools to support their wellbeing, or boost their skills as content creators, marketers and salespeople.
“Lauren is brilliant at bridging the worlds of tech and poetry; her talks are truly original and inspiring.”
