Lauren's brand is dark humor and desperation. After getting her start in the stand-up and sketch comedy communities, this New Englander found that her skills of merging production know-how and creative problem solving with artistic vision made her a stand out in the creative community. In 2022, Lauren founded Bancroffed Inc., a production company committed to supporting fellow women, and underrepresented voices in all aspects of the storytelling space. She is driven by her love of dark comedy, documentaries, Doctor Who, and meticulously folded laundry.
