Hello, I’m Lauren. I grew up in a village in northern England, where I enjoyed an idyllic childhood full of hill walking and horse riding, then moved away as soon as I turned 18 (sorry, mum!)
After selling sunglasses in Dublin, studying Linguistics in London and teaching English in Spanish summer camps, I got my first content writing job in Barcelona. Work opportunities took me to Mexico City and finally Amsterdam, where I became a copywriter and then made the leap to UX writing.
Along the way, I wrote articles for Barcelona’s leading English-language magazine, translated dirty jokes from Catalan to English for a TV3 web comedy series, and volunteered as a staff writer for US non-profit Random Acts.
In my free time, you’ll find me travelling, open-water swimming or hanging out with a book in my hammock. If you ask me nicely, I might even bake you a cake.
Me encanta tu manera de escribir Clarita!
Gracias!
