As a triple citizen of the US, the UK, and Ireland (EU), I am legally able to work in the USA and Europe. I also speak excellent Spanish and decent French. Oh, and I have plenty of experience navigating time zones, so I can help you almost anywhere in the world you are.

Lauren smiles broadly as she looks into the camera. She is wearing a navy blue dress and gold necklace. She is at the beach, and her hair is is being ruffled by the ocean breeze.

  • Lauren is not only talented but very client-focused. She’s organized, patient, and an excellent communicator. I love her modern aesthetic, and her knowledge of WordPress. Lauren holds herself and her work to high standards—she’s a great member of any creative team.

  • Lauren is truly a renaissance woman. Her diverse skills touch the artistic in her graphic designs and the linguistic in her extraordinary writing ability. She can articulate what others feel and describe the process of infertility and pregnancy loss so poetically that it touches the reader’s heart. I look forward to any blog, book, journal or article or design that Lauren creates.

    CO-AUTHOR OF LET’S TALK ABOUT EGG DONATION
  • Over the course of several years working together, Lauren helped us re-design and manage our website, designed logos, posters, and other graphics. She helped draft and edit various grant proposals, info sheets and anything else we were working on, and was always a great ear for batting around ideas, helping make and keep timelines, listening to jokes—in short, just what any small non-profit desperately needs: a person of many talents who is smart and funny and encouraging!

    EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, BAYFEST YOUTH THEATRE
  • Lauren combines the two best qualities in a graphic designer: a high level of creativity with a mathematical, orderly mind for attending to details and getting the tech stuff right. She was patient and receptive enough to deal with my many requests for changes on AmritAunty.com. And I was happy to feature her unique graphic art on Subscription Site Central—an industry blog read by executives from sites like The Financial Times, The Boston Globe, and Scholastic. I plan to use Lauren’s services for a long time to come and recommend her work with no hesitation whatsoever.

    FOUNDER, BREVITY & WIT
    AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR, EQUITY
  • Lauren Cross has been in my writer’s group for many years. Her insights, suggestions and edits of my work have been invaluable to me as a writer. When I also asked her to beta-read my memoir I was not disappointed. With tenderness and honesty Lauren critiqued my work, offered insight, and directed me toward more self exploration and honesty. Most of all, she encouraged me, as an author, to continue to write.
