Here’s what people are saying about Lauren’s work:

We had a great experience working with Lauren. She provided an exceptional translation that was mindful to use gender-inclusive language, and she helped us think about what role translation plays in our organization’s mission. We look forward to working with Lauren again in the future!

ABOLITIONIST TEACHING NETWORK, Translation Client

I was so intrigued at the intention of this US-born organizer with no explicit familial ties to Spanish-speaking countries who made it her duty to speak in Spanish and to extend her comfort in order to build trust, solidarity, and understanding. Seeing Lauren in action is to understand that impact is not measured in only numbers. Lauren is a through and through relationship builder.

R.C., Consulting Client

Working with Lauren has been an exceptional experience. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and deep commitment to language justice truly set her apart. Every aspect of her work was thorough, accurate, and culturally thoughtful. She fulfilled and exceeded all of my expectations, not just as a translator, but as a partner in creating inclusive and equitable language. She brought clarity, care, and consistency throughout.
