Always a Southern girl at heart, Lauren grew up in the Nashville suburb of Hendersonville, Tennessee. While studying business at the University of Tennessee, she decided to pursue her real passion (much to her parents' dismay) and apply to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Hollywood, California. After gaining acceptance to the prestigious conservatory, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career. A graduate of the Academy, Lauren continues her training with a private voice and acting coach. She continues to hone her craft by frequenting CD workshops and attending acting classes in the Los Angeles area. Show less «
